About this listen

The Strait of Hormuz⁠ is currently experiencing a severe operational blockade following the outbreak of the war on 28th February. The waterway is effectively impassable for most commercial traffic as of 9th March due to targeted Iranian attacks and the withdrawal of war-risk insurance. Iran's Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) has issued VHF warnings that no ships are allowed to pass. Commercial tanker traffic has dropped by 90%, with most major shipping firms suspending all transits.
