4 cargo ships have been crossing the Strait of Hormuz since the ceasefire
4 cargo ships crossed Strait of Hormuz since The Iranian Revolutionary Guard announced on Thursday that ships passing through The Strait of Hormuz It must take two alternative routes near the Iranian coast, noting the possibility of the presence of mines on the usual route.
Mehr News Agency reported, citing a military statement accompanied by a marine map showing the two routes in the south and north of Lark Island. "In order to protect against possible collisions with mines, and in coordination with the IRGC Navy, ships will have to take alternative routes to pass through the Strait of Hormuz until further notice.".
The United States and Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire on Tuesday night – Wednesday, less than an hour before the deadline set by US President Donald Trump to destroy the Islamic Republic unless it yields to his demands to reach an agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Tehran has closed the main shipping route since the beginning of March, which led to a sharp rise in global energy prices.
