If you're going to post maps claiming traffic is up: first, don't use the free tier actually pay for the damn thing. And second, do yourself a favour and filter for the following before you post (if you don't, you just look stupid):

    – Only tankers MR-size and above matter (40k+ DWT)

    – Filter for laden tankers only, transiting west-to-east and actually underway at 6+ knots

    – Bother checking sanction status on transiting vessels

    AIS data isn't gospel, but it's pretty damning when even the most generous filtering shows this little movement

    Edit: grammar

    1. Looks to me like 7-8 were permitted to leave prior to the IRGC re-closing the strait entirely.

      Looks like a bunch of ships that were trying to make a break for it are now heading back into the gulf.
