More than 20 commercial ships have successfully passed through the Strait of Hormuz in the past 24 hours each reportedly paid a total fee of 2 million dollars to Iran.
This amounts to over 40 million dollars generated in just one day in one of the world’s most critical maritime routes.
The Strait of Hormuz remains a vital artery for global trade and energy supply, and developments like these highlight how much is at stake in the region.
