The Strait of Hormuz has not been blocked by Iran for now in response to the US air attack against Tehran’s nuclear sites but three tanker ships have already changed their route to avoid the nerve passage by sea by sea. This is what emerges from the data of Marinetraffic, which monitors the movements of ships in the world.
Marie C and Red Ruby, both previously directed towards the Strait, have thrown the anchor close to Fujairah, off the coasts of the United Arab Emirates. While Kohzan Maru is aiming for the coast of Oman, keeping south of Hormuz. Meanwhile, the Japanese companies Nippon Yusen and Mitsui Osk Lines, as reported by Iran International, said they had given instructions to their ships to minimize the time spent in the Persian Gulf, while maintaining the operations through the Strait.
