Only three vessels transit Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday

Preliminary ship-tracking data on Thursday has shown commodity vessel transits through the Strait of Hormuz drop to just three ships on Wednesday, down from 12 a day earlier and well below the 10-day average of about 17, Reuters reports.

It claimed that the figures exclude any vessels that might have passed through the waterway with their Automatic Identification System transponders turned off to avoid detection.
