Iran is considering a controversial bill to impose tolls on ships passing through the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a choke point for nearly 20% of the world’s oil and LNG trade. Lawmakers say vessels must pay for “secure passage,” a move that comes amid ongoing conflict with the United States and Israel and follows warnings from Iranian forces about risky transit conditions. The proposal has triggered widespread concerns about maritime safety, potential enforcement measures, and further disruption to global energy markets as tensions escalate in the region.
