This is the one official Hormuz Blockade Daily Megathread for [[DATE]]
Everything else gets yeeted into the void (or at least politely redirected here). New articles, memes, wild speculation, questions about how screwed your superannuation is, grainy satellite pics of tankers doing U-turns — drop it all below.
Quick rules so we don’t sink this thread too:
- Be civil. This isn’t Twitter.
- Actual sources or at least say “saw it on twitter” so we know how cooked it is.
We’re all watching the same slow-motion geopolitical car crash anyway — might as well watch it from one thread instead of 47 identical ones.
- What’s the latest you’ve seen?
- Any tankers actually turned around yet?
- Oil price predictions?
- Or are we all just doom-scrolling until someone blinks
Feel free to report this post as low effort / AI slop that it is. We'll be sure to take it under consideration

Wish we had live cameras like a sporting event
WILD SPECULATION!
Anyone know any good outlets/websites which just give plain in/out numbers for ship traffic through the Strait, plus some basic details about the nature of ships (e.g. tanker or generic cargo)? Would be helpful to have a more dedicated source rather than using different sources every few days.
Posting this here (used to be in the main thread body/post): https://www.ishormuzopenyet.com
I don’t know if I have heard a daily ship count here now? Trump said we were at 27-34 the last dua before the blockade? 4 sanctioned tankers went through the straight but nothing went through through yesterday? So are we literally at 0?
The one thread for [[DATE]] huh? Good thing I checked and my calendar tells me it is [[DATE]] today.
We Australians decided that there isn’t enough of a crisis and set 1 our 2 remaining refineries on fire.
>The military adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, on Wednesday warned that Iran would sink American ships in the Strait of Hormuz if the United States decided to “police” the key shipping bottleneck.
>”These ships of yours will be sunk by our first missiles and have created a great danger for the U.S. military. They can definitely be exposed to our missiles and we can destroy them,” Mohsen Rezaei, wearing his military uniform, told the state broadcaster.
Looks like Iran is going to attack US military ships if they keep the blockade up. That’s not going to do anyone any favors.
