Iran Reroutes Hormuz Traffic, Citing Sea Mine Risks
"All vessels intending to transit the Strait of Hormuz are advised to take alternative routes to ensure maritime safety and avoid potential sea mine hazards," the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said in a statement carried by local media.
The directive arrives as Tehran moves to temporarily restore passage through the strait — a chokepoint that ordinarily channels roughly one-fifth of the world's crude oil supply — under the terms of a two-week ceasefire agreement. The partial reopening, however, now carries fresh conditions, raising new questions about the reliability and scope of the truce's maritime commitments.
