  "account": "The flow of ships through the strategically important Hormuz Strait, crucial for oil, gas, and fertilizer transport, is diminishing. On Thursday, the provisional ship-tracking data showed seven vessels passing through the strait, compared to eleven the previous day, with an average of fifteen per ten days. These figures exclude ships that have turned off their transponders to avoid detection. Two ships were recently attacked in the Hormuz Strait. The captain of another ship observed \"four unknown projectiles\" striking the two vessels, reported the UK maritime security authority (UKMTO). The incident occurred approximately seven kilometers west of the Omani town of Khasab. One of the ships experienced a fire, while the condition of the second remains unclear. The perpetrator remains unknown. Iran has largely blocked traffic through the Hormuz Strait, a vital trade route for global oil, gas, and fertilizer shipments, through threats and attacks on ships. However, the US military frequently escorts ships along the Omani coast, successfully navigating the passage between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman.",
