Analysis Summary
This is accurate โ 15 ships did cross the Strait of Hormuz in the past 24 hours with Iranian permission, per Iranian state media. But here's the catch: traffic is still down 90% from normal levels before the US-Israel war began in late February. Iran is operating a de facto toll booth system, selectively allowing ships from friendly nations while keeping the strait severely restricted. It's a real development, but the bigger picture is that Iran still has the waterway largely closed.
