Article Summary

The article questions the U.S. government's claims of regaining control over the Strait of Hormuz and restoring oil flows, pointing out that shipping data shows far fewer vessels passing through than before the conflict, and oil prices have risen despite official statements suggesting stability. It uses shipping statistics and price trends to cast doubt on U.S. assertions, while noting that some data gaps—like ships turning off tracking signals—aren’t fully addressed. The piece encourages skepticism toward official narratives by contrasting them with observable economic and logistical realities.
