The data is relevant because it confirms that, even with diplomatic negotiations in New York, Washington is not reducing maritime pressure. The blockade continues to prevent vessels from entering or leaving Iranian ports, while non-Iran-related traffic can cross the regional waters.
Pay particular attention to oil. The maintenance, and increase, of these interdictions raises the risk of Iranian retaliation against ships or American assets if there is no diplomatic progress. The most important point now will be any Iranian military response or any concrete change to the blockade/reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
