    Trump claims a secret U.S. mission moved 100 million barrels of oil through Hormuz

    Trump posted that he had directed a 'secret mission' in which the U.S. military helped oil tankers and other ships through the Strait of Hormuz, claiming more than 200 commercial ships and over 100 million barrels had passed and that the U.S., 'NOT Iran', controls the strait. He gave no evidence; AP said the figure could not be confirmed, and a CENTCOM spokesman said only that U.S. forces 'communicate and coordinate' with commercial ships.

    IMO chief says safe passage through Hormuz 'cannot be considered to exist'

    IMO Secretary-General Arsenio Dominguez said he was increasingly concerned that ships kept trying to transit the Strait of Hormuz without credible security guarantees, that 'safe passage cannot be considered to exist', and that no commercial consideration justified exposing seafarers to such danger. The same day U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said ship traffic through the strait was rising 'very meaningfully'.
