Four ships carrying around 1.8 lakh tonnes of urea, di-ammonium phosphate (DAP) and sulphur have crossed the Strait of Hormuz and are now heading to ports in India, the fertiliser department said on Monday. The ships crossed the conflict-hit sea channel last week. TOI has learnt they sailed through the strait on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Three oil tankers also crossed the critical sea route Saturday. Officials said the seven India-bound ships crossed the strait just before Iran announced its fresh closure. While two ships loaded with fertilisers are carrying 91,750 tonnes of urea, another vessel is transporting 55,000 tonnes of DAP and the fourth one has 33,251 tonnes of sulphur. They are likely to reach ports in Krishnapatnam, Kakinada (Andhra), Paradeep (Odisha) and Mundra (Gujarat) soon.
