Journalist Avi Lipkin says there has been a drastic decrease in the number of ships travelling through the Strait of Hormuz. This comes as the US has decided to begin a blockade of the Strait, after negotiations between the US and Iran fell through. “I don’t know which ships are getting through … but you have to remember it was basically 150 ships daily going through the Strait,” Mr Lipkin told Sky News Digital Presenter Gabriella Power.
