## Resource

Full Weekly Brief: https://thedeepdraft.com/2026/05/31/deepdraft-weekly-maritime-brief-may-31-2026-hormuz-reopening-still-runs-through-owner-insurer-and-bridge-approval/ Hormuz has shifted from closure pressure into a controlled reopening test, but transit still depends on owner consent, insurance cover, mine risk, toll refusal and bridge-level voyage authority. This episode also covers Malacca waiting pressure, the Olympic Life blast, the HMM Namu missile finding, Black Sea drone attacks and the commercial limits of political reopening signals.
