Iran conflict endangers oil tankers
The threat to oil tankers in the Middle East is at its highest since the Iran war began, due to recent attacks in the Red Sea and reduced traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. Shipping activity has plummeted, with only a fraction of vessels passing through these key routes compared to before the conflict, and many ships turning off transponders to avoid detection. The escalating violence, including attacks by Yemen's Houthi fighters and Iran's reluctance to reopen the Strait, has severely impacted global oil flows and increased risks for maritime trade in the region.
