Timelapse shows fall in shipping traffic since start of Iran war
The passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz – the world’s busiest oil shipping canal – has been severely disrupted amid the US-Israeli war with Iran.
Timelapse footage shows a fall in the flow of ships passing through the narrow shipping lane since the US-military offensive began on 28 February.
Usually, around 20% of global oil and gas passes through the strait in the Gulf.
