💨 Abstract

Despite Donald Trump's announcement of a blockade on the Strait of Hormuz, shipping data reveals that over 20 commercial ships, including three Iran-linked vessels, have passed through in the past 24 hours. The U.S. has stated that humanitarian shipments will be exempt, and any violating ships will be diverted. This move follows failed peace talks between the U.S. and Iran, with a second round of talks potentially occurring.
