Transit through the Strait of Hormuz has plummeted to its lowest level since May, with an average of just 10 commodity vessels passing daily over the past ten days, according to shipping data. The dramatic decline reflects a significant slowdown in one of the world's most critical maritime chokepoints.

An average of 10 commodity ships transited the Strait of Hormuz daily over the past 10 days, marking the lowest traffic in the waterway since May, shipping data by Kpler on Monday showed.

The 10-day moving average was 10 on Sunday, down from more than nearly 13 on Saturday.

Meanwhile, only two vessels passed through the strait on Saturday while six others went through on Sunday, mostly using the Iranian route.
