en.Wedoany.com Reported - On March 30, tracking data showed two COSCO container shipping vessels passed the Iranian Larak Island checkpoint between approximately 0800 and 0900 GMT. They were sailing towards the Gulf of Oman at a speed of about 15 knots and are subsequently heading to Port Klang, Malaysia. Shipping analysts pointed out that this is the first confirmed passage of large container carriers through the Strait of Hormuz following recent conflicts, possibly reflecting improving conditions for commercial shipping.

These two vessels had previously attempted to leave the Gulf via the same channel but were unsuccessful; they obtained permission on their second attempt. Shipping analysts believe this transit may signal a shift in the conditions for commercial shipping through this strategic chokepoint, suggesting ongoing diplomatic coordination between Beijing and Tehran regarding passage rights.

Iran has agreed to allow 20 Pakistani-flagged vessels to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. On March 31, senior Chinese and Pakistani diplomatic officials jointly called for an urgent de-escalation and resumption of diplomatic engagement in the Persian Gulf and the Middle East to promote regional stability.
