Strait of Hormuz stays severely disrupted despite the strike pause; JMIC threat level held at SEVERE (Update 074)

More than a week into a fragile US-Iran pause in strikes, the Strait of Hormuz has not returned to normal operations. Traffic remains far below pre-war levels — fewer than 10 commodity ships transited on the latest monitored day, against roughly 100 on a typical pre-war day (CNN shipping data). The maritime threat level has not been lowered: the Combined Maritime Forces' Joint Maritime Information Center, in its most recent numbered advisory (Update 074, 21 July), continued to assess the regional threat as SEVERE, and US MARAD Maritime Alert 2026-001A remains in force, advising vessels to avoi

Two Dynacom tankers — Kavomaleas and Acheloos — struck by projectiles off Oman near the Strait of Hormuz

Greek shipping company Dynacom Tankers said two of its managed vessels were hit by projectiles of unknown origin on Monday 20 July while transiting the US-facilitated southern Hormuz corridor off Oman. The Malta-flagged Panamax tanker Kavomaleas was struck by two projectiles, causing a fire in its engine room and forcing the crew to abandon ship; the Liberian-flagged Acheloos was also struck. UKMTO reported a vessel on fire about 8 nautical miles northwest of Oman's Kumzar, with no environmental impact; all crew were safely located by Omani authorities and taken ashore (Reuters, gCaptain, Lloy

Maritime threat level held at SEVERE (JMIC Update 072); US declares naval blockade of all Iranian ports

The Combined Maritime Forces' Joint Maritime Information Center, in its Advisory Note Update 072 (16 July), assessed the regional maritime threat level as SEVERE, with hostile activity observed across the Gulf, Strait of Hormuz and Gulf of Oman and deliberate hostile action considered highly likely. The risk was further elevated by the US announcement and initiation of a naval blockade of all Iranian ports and coastal areas, effective 14 July 2026 at 2000Z (JMIC Advisory 015-26). US MARAD Maritime Alert 2026-001A advises vessels to avoid the region where possible, maintain at least 30nm separa

Iran cruise-missile attack on UAE crude tankers Al Bahyah and Mombasa B off Oman; one seafarer killed

Iran struck multiple merchant ships in and around the Strait of Hormuz on 14 July. The UAE-linked crude oil tanker Al Bahyah was hit off Oman's coast, killing one seafarer and injuring three; the crude tanker Mombasa B was also struck, injuring eleven mariners; and the Norwegian-owned chemical tanker Stolt Magnesium was attacked by a projectile northeast of Qalhat. The UAE defence ministry said two ships were targeted by Iranian cruise missiles (Bloomberg, NBC News, Al Jazeera). The same day the crew member left missing from the 12 July GFS Galaxy strike — an Indian national from Pune — was co

Maritime threat level held at SEVERE for the Strait of Hormuz; JMIC expands southern route to two-way traffic (12 July)

In an advisory on 12 July, the Combined Maritime Forces' Joint Maritime Information Center said the security threat level in the Strait of Hormuz remains SEVERE, while the southern (Omani-coast) transit route has been expanded to allow two-way vessel traffic. Despite Iran's 12 July claim that the waterway is closed, UKMTO and US Naval Forces Central Command (NAVCENT) say the southern route remains available and that the strait is an international waterway; mariners are advised to remain alert, follow safety procedures and coordinate with maritime authorities. The threat assessment follows the

Iran's IRGC strikes Cyprus-flagged container ship GFS Galaxy in the Strait of Hormuz; crew member missing, US launches third round of strikes

US Central Command said Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps 'blatantly attacked' the M/V GFS Galaxy, a Cyprus-flagged container ship transiting the Strait of Hormuz — the vessel caught fire with significant engine-room damage, is unable to continue its voyage, and a civilian crew member is missing. UKMTO reported the incident about 9 nautical miles off the coast of Oman, with a fire at the rear of the ship. Iran's IRGC navy characterised it via Telegram as one of several 'warning shots' fired at ships on an 'unauthorised route,' and Tehran declared the Strait of Hormuz closed 'until furth

Iran said it attacked US bases and strategic centres in Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait in retaliation for a second consecutive night of US airstrikes on Iranian coastal cities including Bushehr, Bandar Abbas, Chabahar and Sirik. The regional crossfire further undermined the frayed ceasefire; reporting put the two-day toll at 14 killed and 78 wounded.
