Major global shipping companies Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd have said their vessels are continuing to sail through the Strait of Hormuz, even after U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities raised tensions in the region.<\/p>\n

A.P. Moller\u2013Maersk confirmed on Sunday that its container ships are still operating in the area. The Danish shipping company said it is keeping a close watch on the security situation for each vessel and is prepared to make changes if needed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will continuously monitor the security risk to our specific vessels in the region and are ready to take operational actions as needed,\u201d the company said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Maersk also mentioned that it is open to re-evaluating its decision based on any new information or developments that could affect the safety of its crew or ships.<\/p>\n

The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow but critical sea route that connects the Persian Gulf with global shipping lanes. It handles about one-fifth of all crude oil transported by sea, making it a vital passage for the global economy, energy supplies, and freight movement.<\/p>\n

German shipping company Hapag-Lloyd also confirmed on Sunday that its ships are currently sailing through the Strait. A company spokesperson stated that the situation is being carefully observed and could change quickly if conditions demand it.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are still sailing through the Strait of Hormuz, but of course the situation can change within a very short time,\u201d the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

Both companies stated that they are ready to respond swiftly to any changes in risk levels and will continue monitoring the situation closely.<\/p>\n
