2/20 Iranian control, US blockade enforcement, Houthi attacks and revived Somali piracy are becoming connected parts of the same maritime problem. This is all due to the degradation of the usual systems of operation, military and commercial, that kept traffic flowing in the region.

3/20 Hormuz first. The complete Oman–Iran agreement is still not public. There is no operational annex, chart, coordinates, mine-clearance certificate, navigational warning or IMO-adopted replacement route.

4/20 There were no confirmed Hormuz attacks in the 48 hours ending Sunday. That is welcome, but not evidence of safety. It is also important to keep remembering the scale of the impact of this conflict. The IMO total is 68 confirmed incidents and 19 seafarer fatalities.
