UKMTO: Strait of Hormuz traffic reduced by 90%

Summary: Maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains significantly reduced, with vessel operators favouring the northern route amid security concerns. UKMTO says AIS-detected transits are about 90% below pre-conflict baseline levels since the peak on 24–26 June, and the southern Omani route accounts for most projectile strike incidents reported since 6 July.
