Three Oman-flagged tankers enter Strait of Hormuz without sailing through Iranian waters — what route did they take?
The trio of vessels, headed towards the Strait of Hormuz from the Persian Gulf, stopped transmitting automated position signals at 9:30 AM UK time while rounding the tip of Oman’s Musandam Peninsula, which juts northwards into the strategic waterway, the Bloomberg report said. The development comes as Iran’s IRNA news agency, citing Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi, reported that Iran and Oman are jointly drafting a protocol to monitor maritime traffic through the strait. While it remains unclear whether the ships completed the journey, what stands out is that their route lay south.
