MarineTraffic(@MarineTraffic):Chokepoint traffic holds, risks shift #MarineTraffic data show vessel traffic remained active through Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb last week, although headline volumes mask significant changes in the underlying mix. Hormuz recorded 121 crossings, up 2.5% from 118. Laden crossings fell 27% to 35, while ballast movements rose to 61 and sanctioned crossings increased from 9 to 16. Iran’s unilateral routing scheme accounted for 46.3% of crossings. Bab el-Mandeb recorded 269 crossings, up 3.1% and roughly 2.2 times Hormuz volumes. Laden transits increased to 131, while dark transits fell from 23 to 15. The figures show why vessel-level tracking matters when assessing changing maritime risk.
