Three vessels — two cargo ships and a fuel tanker — appeared to have crossed the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday as US and Iranian blockades remained in place.
Visible traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remained near-zero early Tuesday, as a tenuous ceasefire between Iran and the US headed toward expiration.
