Despite U.S. efforts to enforce a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, multiple vessels, including a sanctioned supertanker, reportedly entered Iranian waters on April 15, raising questions over the effectiveness of Washington’s strategy. According to Iran’s Fars News Agency, citing ship-tracking data, a food carrier and other commercial ships continued transit toward Iranian ports, including Imam Khomeini. Notably, a 2-million-barrel capacity supertanker under U.S. sanctions is said to have reached its destination without interference. The development suggests ongoing maritime traffic through the chokepoint despite heightened tensions and U.S. warnings, challenging claims of a fully enforced blockade.
