"Iran's mission to the United Nations stated that vessels may avail of safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, provided they neither participate in nor support acts of aggression against Iran and fully comply with the declared safety and security regulations."
"Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has significantly declined, with only five vessels tracked transiting the waterway on Monday, down from an average of 120 daily transits before the conflict."
"While Iran initially warned that any ship attempting passage would face attack, officials have recently insisted that the waterway remains open, except to enemies."
Iran has announced that non-hostile ships may transit the Strait of Hormuz, provided they comply with safety regulations and do not support aggression against Iran. This statement comes amid a significant drop in maritime traffic due to the ongoing US-Israel war on Iran. Currently, only a small number of vessels are passing through the strait, which typically sees about one-fifth of global oil and liquefied natural gas supplies. Iran's officials have emphasized that the waterway remains open to friendly vessels despite previous warnings of attacks on ships.
