Shipping through Strait of Hormuz largely halted, limited tanker movement seen

Apr 20, 2026, 11:29 GMT+1

Overall shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remained at a standstill on Monday, according to ship tracking data cited by Reuters.

Despite the disruption, limited movements were recorded, with two tankers — a liquefied petroleum gas carrier and a chemical tanker — sailing into the Persian Gulf through the strait.

One oil products tanker was also seen leaving the Persian Gulf via the Strait of Hormuz, the data showed.
