Reportedon one origin only: 1 distinct origin, 1 tied to no party.
Kpler data cited by Reuters showed six ships crossing the Strait of Hormuz on Monday 10 August, against a 10-day average of about 11 and pre-war levels of 130 to 140 a day. Reuters also cited Kpler data showing about 32 ships a day using Bab el-Mandeb the previous week, down from about 50 before the Houthis declared their blockade on Saudi shipping. Iran's closure of the strait and the US blockade of Iranian ports both remained in force.
