Danish shipping company Maersk announced on the 8th that the ceasefire between the United States and Iran does not yet fully ensure the safety of passage through the Strait of Hormuz. According to Odaily, the company remains cautious and will not resume the routes suspended last month. Maersk stated that although the two-week ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran might create opportunities for navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, uncertainties regarding maritime safety persist, and further understanding of the ceasefire's conditions is necessary.
The company emphasized its commitment to closely monitoring the situation and providing timely updates in the coming hours and days as circumstances evolve. "Any decisions regarding the Strait of Hormuz will be based on ongoing risk assessments, close monitoring of the security situation, and guidance from relevant authorities and partners."
