Reportedon one origin only: 1 distinct origin, 1 tied to no party.
Kpler data showed four tankers and three bulk carriers crossed the Strait of Hormuz on 9 April and at least 12 vessels since the ceasefire, against well over 100 a day in peacetime, AP reported; an LNG tanker turned back early on 10 April after attempting an IRGC-ordered route. Trump posted that Iran was doing a very poor job letting oil through and that this was not the agreement, and said Iran had better not be charging ship fees. Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei declared victory and pledged a new era in Hormuz.
