Washington schedules tanker passage through Hormuz
The Financial Times reported that the United States has asked oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz to sail at specific times only to ensure they receive military protection. This comes amid increasing Iranian attacks on ships during the night. Since May, Washington has been providing aerial protection for vessels traveling along a route near the coast of Oman, and since September, the protection periods have been reduced to two times a day in an effort to ease tensions and secure navigation in the strait.
