Strait of Hormuz vessel transits plunged to seven on Thursday, down from 11 the previous day, as maritime traffic remained severely constrained. The traffic level sits well below the 10-day average of 15 transits. Before the conflict involving Iran began on February 28, the waterway typically handled 125 commercial vessels daily.
