Three Oil Supertankers Sail Through the Strait of Hormuz

Two Chinese supertankers loaded with crude sailed through the Strait of Hormuz hours after a Greek vessel moved through the waterway, marking a significant uptick in oil shipping traffic days after a fragile ceasefire between the US and Iran was announced.

It represents the biggest day of oil exits through Hormuz since the war caused traffic through the waterway to all but halt six weeks ago. None are carrying oil from the Islamic Republic or have obvious, direct links to the country.
