Boat traffic in the Strait of Hormuz is still scarce; only 12 boats were observed passing through the channel on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. All ships appear to be sailing along the northern route between the Iranian islands within the strait. According to ship tracking data, six of the ships that have passed through the Strait of Hormuz since Tuesday morning have been sanctioned by the US. The remaining six ships appear to be linked to Iran, including several bulk carriers that previously indicated the delivery of food to this Persian Gulf country. Tracking signals showed that as Tehran strengthened its control over the Strait of Hormuz, all ships sailed along a narrow northern channel between Iran's Rajek Island and Qeshm Island.
