According to Jin10, the UK Maritime Trade Operations office said commercial shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has continued to decline over the past 48 hours, with bidirectional vessel counts in single digits. UKMTO also said no confirmed attacks or interference incidents were found, but noted that Iranian threats and harassment activities remain, including drone overflights, targeted surveillance of merchant ships, and occasional very high frequency radio calls. The office added that these actions continue to show Iran's intent to maintain a presence along key shipping lanes and keep pressure on transiting vessels. UKMTO also said commercial traffic in the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb has continued to decline after the Houthis imposed a maritime blockade on Saudi Arabia on July 20.
