Over 60% Of India-Bound Ships Go Dark While Crossing Strait Of Hormuz Amid US-Iran Tensions

Over 60% of India-bound commercial ships are disabling their AIS transponders while transiting the Strait of Hormuz amid ongoing US-Iran tensions, creating significant navigational uncertainty and security risks on one of the world's most critical shipping routes. Ongoing attacks on vessels, disputed navigation corridors, a fragile ceasefire, and IMO's temporary suspension of its evacuation plan are causing major disruptions to maritime traffic through the strait.
