Russian oligarch’s superyacht allowed through strait of Hormuz, source says
Russian billionaire Alexei Mordashov’s $500 million superyacht, Nord, successfully transited the blockaded Strait of Hormuz on April 26, 2026, after receiving implicit approval from both the US and Iran, according to a source close to Mordashov. The vessel, sailing under a Russian flag and compliant with international maritime law, is now positioned near Oman’s coast, at a time when the strategically important waterway has seen severely reduced traffic amid ongoing US-Iran tensions.
