IMF PortWatch: Hormuz ship arrivals averaged 12 a day in mid-April, 88% below the pre-war week
Reportedon one origin only: 1 distinct origin, 0 tied to no party.
EconoFact reported that IMF PortWatch data showed a daily average of 12 ships arriving at Hormuz ports in the week beginning 12 April 2026, 88% below the 103 a day in the week before the war, and about three a day before the 8 April ceasefire. EconoFact said the fall is likely overstated because some ships switched off their AIS transponders. Figures are cited from PortWatch; no series is stored.
