One tanker cut its transponder as it crossed
Two LPG carriers bound for India successfully transited the Strait of Hormuz amid ongoing US-Iran restrictions and a stalled push for a ceasefire. Ship-tracking shows Symi appeared in the Gulf of Oman after going dark, while NV Sunshine followed after changing its indicated destination. Together with other recent crossings since Sunday, the total reached ten large energy ships. The flow continued even as some vessels remained near a US blockade line and one US-turned supertanker idled nearby.
