According to news from the US side on the 10th, the US Navy continues to recommend that commercial ships use the southern channel of the Strait of Hormuz despite Iran's repeated requests for ships to switch to the northern waterway close to the Iranian coast. The Joint Maritime Information Center in Bahrain issued a notice on the same day stating that the safety threat level of the Strait of Hormuz and surrounding waters is still at a serious level, but emphasizes that the southern channel of the Strait has been expanded and continues to be open to all ships. The circular suggests that ships coordinate with the Allied Naval Force when passing through the Strait of Hormuz, but at the same time points out that this is not mandatory; ships can also pass through the southern waterway without coordination.
