That’s down from three oil and chemical tankers that went through the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday.
By comparison, 65 oil and chemical vessels went through the Strait of Hormuz on February 27, the final day before the war started and vessels started getting attacked and insurers dropped maritime coverage.
“You’re seeing the strait get bottled up. It’s hard for vessels to get in or out,” an oil industry official told CNN today.
