一句话看懂
A ship exiting Hormuz was hit by a projectile, killing a crew member. Trump says the strait is open, but traffic is at a five-day low.
背景
The Strait of Hormuz is a critical oil shipping route. Iran has effectively blocked the strait since the war with the U.S. and Israel began on February 28, frequently attacking commercial ships. The U.S. and Iran are in a standoff over the waterway, with Iran demanding the U.S. end its war and compensate for damage before reopening.
