Iran opened Strait of Hormuz! 10 ships allowed per day, a fee of 2 million dollars imposed on supertankers

Tehran: Iran has decided to allow about 10 ships a day to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, with fees for supertankers that could cost up to $2 million. Wall Street Journal gave this information in one of its reports. According to the newspaper, shipowners from several countries are in talks with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp (IRGC) to pass through the strait.

The report said that ships that will pass through this route will have to follow specific routes only and will have to take necessary permissions. It is noteworthy that on Wednesday night, US President Donald Trump had announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran. After this, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi had announced the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. This strait is considered extremely important for the supply of about 20 percent of the world’s oil, petroleum products and LNG.
