An international strait is a narrow natural waterway connecting two parts of the high seas or exclusive economic zones, used for international navigation. Per the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), a transit passage regime prevails in such straits for both ships and aircraft with few exceptions, even when the territorial waters of bordering country or countries overlap. Worldwide, more than 200 straits might satisfy the criteria of an international strait.[1] Notable international straits include Bosporus and Dardanelles, Strait of Magellan, Strait of Gibraltar, Strait of Dover, and Danish straits,[2] with the most famous being probably the Strait of Hormuz.[3]
