Is this breaking historical records?

Historically, the Strait of Hormuz has almost never been truly "completely closed," but it has come close multiple times, most famously during the "Tanker War" phase in the 1980s～

The first major crisis occurred during the Iran-Iraq War.

Starting in 1984, Iran and Iraq attacked each other's tankers and merchant ships, a period known as the "Tanker War." Large numbers of tankers were attacked by missiles, mines, and speedboats, causing shipping risks to spike dramatically. However, even so, the Strait of Hormuz was never completely blocked. While global oil transportation was disrupted, navigation always remained open～

The second brush with crisis occurred in 2011–2012.

At that time, Iran threatened to close the strait due to sanctions issues, causing oil prices to fluctuate significantly. However, it ultimately remained only political deterrence and was never actually implemented～

The reason is actually quite straightforward:

The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world's most critical energy corridors, with approximately 20% of global oil transported through it daily. A complete closure would cause massive economic losses not only to the West, but to Middle Eastern oil-producing nations themselves. Therefore, it typically serves only as a strategic deterrent, not as a long-term option to actually implement～

So history provides a clear answer:

The Strait of Hormuz can be tense, it can be dangerous, but a true complete closure has never happened～
