Iran's shadow tanker fleet runs out of stored oil

Original: BREAKING OVERNIGHT: IRAN'S major shadow fleet of tankers is officially *OUT OF OIL*, predicted by Treasury Sec. Scott Be

Iran's shadow fleet of tankers has reportedly run out of stored crude, according to a Wall Street Journal report. When the conflict began, Iran had roughly 135 million barrels parked on tankers at sea. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent had predicted the depletion, which supporters attribute to the Trump administration's naval blockade involving Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

Why now: A new WSJ report confirming the exhaustion of Iran's floating oil reserves is being widely shared as evidence the US blockade strategy is working.
