Iran's state broadcaster reported that 30 ships are coordinating with Iran's Revolutionary Guards Navy to transit the Strait of Hormuz tonight. Ship owners and captains have been in direct contact with the IRGC since last night to arrange passage along Iran's designated route.
The broadcaster described the ships as filing requests with the IRGC and waiting for clearance through a managed corridor.
Background on the Strait The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow waterway between Iran and Oman that connects the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman. It serves as a critical passage for oil shipments and other maritime traffic.
According to the broadcaster, the coordination represents the clearest signal yet of who is functionally controlling the strait.
