As the #IMO marks #WorldMaritimeDay, a new extended theme demands tangible #maritimesafety improvements for #seafarers amid geopolitical strains, pushing global #shipping and #logistics sectors to turn regulatory policy into daily operational practice.
The #IMO warns governments to protect merchant shipping after 80 verified attacks around the #StraitofHormuz killed at least 22 #seafarers, as violence across the #RedSea and #BlackSea threatens maritime trade and supply chains.

The chokepoint story gets told in barrels and premiums.
The IMO list through 8 September counts 73 confirmed vessel attacks and 21 seafarer deaths.
Owners can be ordered to sail. Crews consent to sail. No corridor text has mentioned them.

One more person is reported dead and three more injured.
Their nationality does not alter their humanity.
Merchant seafarers are civilians doing their jobs, not expendable counters around a cargo or acceptable losses within a state’s calculation of whether a passage is working.
I am trying my best to keep this reported on here too... please ask if you want anything explained by someone deemed somewhat of an expert on these things...

The surface threat is not theoretical.
CENTCOM reported that an explosive uncrewed boat struck Tutor in June 2024, causing both severe flooding and engine-room damage.
Air-defence cover therefore cannot be treated as a complete answer to the risks facing a merchant ship.
