The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has announced that it coordinated the transit of another 35 ships through the Strait of Hormuz in the past 24 hours.
The ships, including oil tankers, container ships, and other commercial vessels, passed after obtaining permission and with full coordination and security protection of the IRGC Navy.
This comes on top of 31 vessels that passed through the strait in the previous 24 hours. Iran has established a new supervisory management zone and requires all ships to coordinate with the IRGC Navy and obtain permits before transiting.

The IRGC plays a central role in the new multi-layered transit system that gives preference to ships linked to allies such as China and Russia, while others require government-to-government arrangements. The vetting process includes checking for any connection to the US or Israel.
Iran shut the Strait to its enemies and their allies following the US-Israeli aggression and maintains that full normal operations will resume only after the illegal US naval blockade is lifted and the war permanently ends.
