- UKMTO lowers Strait of Hormuz threat level to moderate
The UK Maritime Trade Operations Centre (UKMTO) reduced the threat level for the Strait of Hormuz to 'moderate' from 'substantial.' The southern route near Oman remains open, but mariners are warned about mines and naval presence, with a recommendation to use NATO's Naval Cooperation and Guidance for Shipping system.
