      <title>Gulf shipping traffic via Strait of Hormuz falls to six vessels</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330467342/gulf-shipping-traffic-via-strait-of-hormuz-falls-to-six-vessels</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz fell to six on Monday, compared ​with a 10-day average of about 11 vessels, ‌shipping data showed, amid fading hopes of a peace deal between the US and Iran.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Four commodity vessels, including two empty ​oil product tankers, entered the waterway, data ​from Kpler showed on Tuesday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Two vessels — a small tanker laden with ​liquefied petroleum gas and another carrying residual fuels — exited ​the Strait, the data showed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In pre-war days, about 130 to 140 ships typically transited the strait.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On Monday, 25 vessels transited the Bab ​el-Mandeb strait on the Red Sea, broadly unchanged ​when compared with the 10-day average of nearly 24 ships, ‌Kpler data showed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday &lt;a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="link--external" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-ties-hormuz-reopening-us-concessions-several-demands-2026-08-09/"&gt;responded&lt;/a&gt; to Iran’s conditions for a peace deal by laying out his own demands that Iran pay compensation for people ​killed in wars, ​attacks and ⁠protests.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The proposal was a response to Tehran’s demands for compensation and an end ​to sanctions. The Iranian demands were largely ​in line with the terms of a preliminary peace deal signed in June, which has since broken down.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since the ⁠war began in February, Trump has ​repeatedly swung between threats of escalation and assertions that a peace deal ​is close.&lt;/p&gt;
