Three Saudi supertankers carrying 6 million barrels of oil have passed through the Strait of Hormuz, signaling a potential easing of tensions after a deal between the U.S. and Iran. This follows a period of heightened risk assessments for the crucial shipping lane.
Três petroleiros sauditas com 6 milhões de barris de petróleo atravessaram o Estreito de Ormuz. O feito ocorre após acordo entre EUA e Irã para encerrar guerra, que inclui abertura imediata do estreito e levantamento do bloqueio aos portos iranianos. Preços do petróleo Brent caíram mais de 2%.
Uma frota fantasma de navios petroleiros 'zumbis' transporta petróleo russo, contornando sanções e financiando a máquina de guerra de Putin. Esses navios, velhos e mal mantidos, também são usados para espionagem e sabotagem contra a Otan.
The US military has been covertly guiding approximately 70 commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz in recent weeks, The New York Times reported. Iran had previously closed the vital waterway to "hostile countries" following US and Israeli airstrikes.
UAE and Qatar oil giants are employing "dark transits," switching off vessel transponders in the Strait of Hormuz to maintain energy exports amid escalating regional tensions and pressure on global supply routes.
Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) is reportedly using "shadow transit," turning off transponders on vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz to continue oil and gas exports amid regional tensions. Cargoes are then transferred to other ships off the UAE and Oman coasts or sent to India.
Transponders will be installed on fire trucks and rescue vehicles at LaGuardia, JFK and Newark airports following a March 22 collision between an Air Canada jet and a fire truck at LaGuardia that killed two pilots. The Port Authority is implementing the safety measure after the NTSB noted the lack of transponders in its preliminary report.
