Fresh attacks disrupt shipping in the Strait of Hormuz

Original: SITREP: "Shipping in the Strait of # Hormuz is under fresh attack, disrupting transit, and the latest official PortWatch

Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz is reportedly under renewed attack, disrupting transit through one of the world's most critical oil chokepoints. PortWatch data is cited showing only one vessel transiting on September 27, roughly 1% of typical traffic, while the Petroline East-West Pipeline remains shut, cutting Saudi Arabia's alternative export route. A cited crisis pressure index stands at 88, described as extreme.

Why now: A near-total halt in Hormuz transit, combined with the pipeline bypass being offline, threatens global oil supply and freight costs.
