(an hour ago)The US Central Command (CENTCOM) has declared that Hormuz Strait is “open to all vessels”, despite Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard troops (IRGC) announced earlier today that they had closed this water route, writes CNN.
Hormuz' “Nutique is open to all ships seeking to legally cross this international water route”, CENTCOM wrote in an X post, adding: “The American Forces are positioned and ready to ensure that the freedom of navigation remains guaranteed, despite unwarranted aggression, harassment, threats and arbitrary statements of Iran”.
The X-ray doesn't control the strait. The circulation is continuing”, followed by statement.
Earlier today, the Joint Marine Information Centre (JMIC), which is monitored by the US Navy, said Oman's southern route through the Hormuz Strait remains open for circulation in both directions. However, it warned that the security threat level on this waterway remains “high”.
Rounding through the straits has fallen again after Iran's announcement, according to data published today by the MarineTraff shipping tracking agency.
