Hormuz ship crossings extend slide on fresh strikes
Vessel crossings in the Strait of Hormuz fell to four on Monday, down from seven the previous day, amid heightened tensions following recent US-Iran attacks. The decline in crossings reflects growing caution among shipping operators, as Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis announced a naval blockade on Saudi Arabia, potentially disrupting global energy supplies. Reports emerged of tankers being struck by projectiles, further escalating shipping concerns in the region.
