Watch: Ships begin moving through Strait of Hormuz after US and Iran agree ceasefire

Ships have begun passing through the Strait of Hormuz again after the US and Iran announced a two-week ceasefire. On Tuesday (7 April), Donald Trump announced that attacks will be temporarily paused as Iran agreed to reopen the crucial Gulf shipping route. Data from Marine Traffic shows vessels resuming travel through the waterway. The ship tracking service said that the Greek-owned bulk carrier NJ Earth crossed the Strait at 08:44 UTC, while the Liberia-flagged Daytona Beach transited earlier at 06:59 UTC. It added that hundreds of vessels remain in the region, including 426 tankers, 34 LPG carriers, and 19 LNG vessels.
