Iran-Oman talks on new Hormuz maritime route; reopening tied to US compliance
Anadolu Agency EN·IR · OM · US·about 15 hours ago
IranWire reports that 27 tankers, though undamaged, remain stranded in Asian waters due to strikes on rudders and other systems, effectively removing them from the oil transport chain. This indicates a targeted campaign to disrupt Iran's oil exports without sinking vessels, potentially reducing its export capacity. The claim is based on a single source and lacks independent corroboration, so the scale and duration of the disruption remain uncertain.
