Strait of Hormuz Evacuation Paused

A UN-backed evacuation plan through the Strait of Hormuz has been paused after a tanker was struck by a projectile off Oman’s coast—no injuries or environmental damage reported. The International Maritime Organization is halting further ship movements until safety can be assured, amid Iran’s warning that vessels must seek its permission to transit. This incident follows a recent uptick in maritime traffic, still below pre-war levels, and comes as oil prices dip amid escalating regional tensions, including ongoing peace talks between the U.S. and Iran and potential spillover from Israel-Hezbollah clashes.
