IMO’s operation aims to enable hundreds of ships carrying around 11,000 seafarers to resume their voyages
The UN’s International Maritime Organization (IMO) has begun implementing a plan to clear hundreds of vessels stranded in the Arabian Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz following the ceasefire agreement between Iran and the United States. 
The IMO said on June 23 that the operation aims to enable hundreds of ships carrying around 11,000 seafarers to resume their voyages. The agency has already started contacting affected vessels ahead of transit operations, but did not provide a timetable for implementation.
The organization added that it had secured the necessary security guarantees and completed a comprehensive navigation assessment to ensure conditions are in place for safe passage.
The operation will be carried out in coordination with Iran, Oman, other littoral states as well as the United States.
