Strait of Hormuz shipping traffic falls to three-month low: Kpler

Shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has reached a three-month low, with only one raw materials ship passing through on Monday, according to preliminary data from Kpler, a ship tracking firm. This figure marks the lowest since May 7, as initially reported by Reuters. The single vessel was a large gas carrier that entered the strait from the Gulf of Oman.

However, the numbers may change as some ships are believed to have turned off their transponders while crossing the area. In other news, Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi recently held talks with Iranian leaders in Tehran, expressing optimism about the discussions. Naqvi mentioned that the talks focused on Middle East tensions and the potential for peace, noting that the meeting with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian concluded favorably.
