An “unprecedented” crisis is unfolding for 20,000 seafarers stranded in the Persian Gulf, a UN body has warned, asthe Strait of Hormuzclosure leaves crews trapped on ships with no clear way out.Asthe stalemate in the Gulfdrags on, maritime workers – many from poor, developing countries – are finding themselves stranded at sea, caught between commercial pressure from ship owners, security threats from drones and sea mines and limited legal protections.“It is an unprecedented situation,” Damien Chevallier, director of the Maritime Safety Division at the UN’s International Maritime Organization (IMO), said in an interview with CNN. “We have around 20,000 seafarers in the Gulf for now close to eight weeks. It is a humanitarian crisis. We have never faced such a situation.”The warning lays bare the severity of the situation facing the crews. Many are unable to dock on either side of the Persian Gulf: Iranian ports pose war-zone risks, while visa restrictions and logistical hurdles along the Arab states lining the Gulf’s southern shores make it difficult for many sailors to leave their vessels. The maritime exit –through the Strait of Hormuz– remains effectively closed.Since the war started, Iran has sought to impose new navigation rules in the Persian Gulf, allowing vessels from so-called “friendly” countries to pass through the strait in exchange for fees.In response, the Trump administration has moved to enforce a naval blockade targeting ships entering or leaving Iranian ports and warning shipping firms they could face sanctions if they pay those tolls.A man looks at the India-flagged tanker Desh Garima, as it unloads crude oil at an offloading terminal after transiting the Strait of Hormuz, amid supply disruptions linked to the US-Israeli conflict with Iran, in Mumbai, India, April 30, 2026.Francis Mascarenhas/ReutersThe competing measures have created a standoff that has brought traffic through the strategic chokepoint to a near halt, with only a handful of vessels
