The Strait of Hormuz is experiencing increased ship traffic following an interim deal between Iran and the U.S., though volumes remain below pre-war levels. Disagreements persist over control of the waterway, with both nations suggesting they may impose tolls on passing vessels. Iran has established a new authority to manage the strait and conduct demining, while the U.S. has sanctioned this authority and threatened its own toll system if a final peace agreement is not reached.
