Iran lets 2 India-flagged gas tankers sail through Strait of Hormuz, insiders say
AI Summary
Amidst heightened tensions and disruptions to global energy supplies due to the conflict between Iran, the US, and Israel, Iran has allowed two Indian-flagged liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) carriers to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. The Strait, a crucial passage for global oil and gas, has seen significantly reduced traffic due to Iranian restrictions. The Indian Navy escorted the first tanker, Shivalik, while the second, Nanda Devi, is expected to follow. This exception follows discussions between Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian regarding the transit of goods and energy. India has also provided safe harbor to Iranian sailors whose vessel docked there after participating in naval exercises.
