Are more oil tankers now cruising through the Strait of Hormuz?

Analysis Reasoning

The post claims more oil tankers are cruising through the Strait of Hormuz right now, exactly like Trump said would happen during Iran negotiations. This is FALSE—current data shows tanker traffic has dropped to near zero or very low levels (e.g., just 11 oil tankers transited last week), with most passages tied to Iran amid the 2026 crisis, not a fulfillment of Trump's prediction.
