The U.S. has a new proposed route for vessels, including oil tankers, attempting to navigate the Strait of Hormuz. It’s a single narrow passageway that hugs the coast of Oman, according to the Defense Department.

Hundreds of ships and their crews, including massive oil tankers, are still stuck on either side of the strait, which Iran declared closed weeks ago.
