Strait of Hormuz shipping still 65% below pre-war levels, UKMTO reports

The figure reflects the ongoing impact of US-Iran military tensions, though the exact composition of traffic (tanker vs. other) and recovery trajectory are not specified. This persistent reduction in flows carries implications for global oil supply and shipping costs.
