Bloomberg.com • • business
Key Points:
- Satellite images indicate that oil shipments from Iran's primary export terminal at Kharg Island have ceased for several consecutive days.
- No ocean-going oil tankers were observed at the terminal on May 8, 9, or 11, marking the longest period without shipments since the war began.
- Previous interruptions were brief and isolated, but this extended halt suggests a significant disruption in Iran's oil exports.
