More than 160 oil tankers are stranded in the Persian Gulf, maritime organizations warn against risky passage.

According to the British Lloyd's List on the 9th, more than 160 mainstream oil tankers are still stranded in the waters of the Persian Gulf since the outbreak of regional conflicts at the end of February, with the time exceeding 100 days. Secretary-General of the International Maritime Organization Dominque warned that sailors should not take risks to pass through the Strait of Hormuz for commercial interests. Despite the fact that about a quarter of oil tankers in the Persian Gulf have gradually left in the early stages of the conflict, the recent departure progress has significantly slowed down. The security risks in the vicinity of the Strait of Hormuz remain high, and most ship owners continue to maintain a high level of caution and are unwilling to hastily arrange for ships to pass through the relevant waters.
