U.S. Central Command says it redirected 67 commercial vessels under its Hormuz blockade
Question
U.S. Central Command says it redirected 67 commercial vessels under its Hormuz blockade
Direct answer
The blockade keeps tanker routing distorted, supports freight and war-risk insurance, and sustains a supply-risk premium in crude. It also creates a watch item for Gulf exporters whose cargoes must clear the corridor.
