Data and analytics firm Kpler says traffic in the Strait of Hormuz held "steady" on Tuesday, 1 July, with 34 verified crossings recorded and traffic evenly split by direction.

Strait of Hormuz ship movements are picking up but remain far from normal as security concerns, insurance issues and US-Iran talks keep traffic subdued.

Vessel traffic through the Strait of Hormuz continued over the weekend despite security concerns and attacks on two ships, according to ship-tracking provider MarineTraffic.
