On the news, the international market service organization Kepler posted on social media on the 22nd that the traffic volume of the two major international energy transportation channels, the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, both declined on the 21st.

This reflects that against the backdrop of continued tension in the regional security situation, the risk aversion of international shipping companies has further increased. On the evening of the 21st local time, the U.S. military stated that it had launched the latest round of air strikes on Iran at 19:00 Eastern Time that day.

This marked the 11th consecutive night that the U.S. military had launched attacks on Iran. U.S. Central Command said in a statement: "This air strike is designed to continue to weaken Iran's ability to threaten commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz."
