Washington outlines oil tanker timelines
The United States has launched specific timelines for the passage of oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz in order to provide military protection, following Iran's escalation of nighttime attacks on vessels. Since May, Washington has been offering protection for ships passing along the Omani coast, but since September, the permitted transit times have been reduced to two daily time windows, with a recommendation to travel during daytime hours instead of at night due to ongoing threats. The U.S. Central Command emphasizes that these measures aim to ensure the continuous flow of oil and to reduce risks.
