LoginUS Central Command: More Than 17 Million Barrels of Oil Passed through Strait of Hormuz
Washington, June 20 (QNA) - US Central Command confirmed that commercial ship traffic through the Strait of Hormuz increased today as US forces continue their operations in the region to support freedom of navigation.
In a statement on X, the Command said that commercial ship traffic through the Strait of Hormuz rose on June 20 as US forces continued their operations in the region to support freedom of navigation.
The statement continued, "Safe passage through the international waterway remained intact today as 55 merchant ships transited, moving large amounts of cargo and more than 17 million barrels of oil to global markets."
The United States and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding electronically last Wednesday to end the war that began on February 28, following months of confrontations and heightened tensions. The move is seen as paving the way for a new phase of de-escalation and containment of tensions in the region. (QNA)
