At least two US-sanctioned vessels linked to Iran entered the Gulf through what appears to be a new route near Iran’s Larak and Qeshm islands, as traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remained sharply reduced amid the third day of a US blockade. Ship-tracking data on Thursday showed liquefied petroleum gas carrier G Summer and giant crude carrier Hong Lu, also known as RHN, moved into the Gulf after coming from the UAE, sailing close to Iran’s coast and then passing through Hormuz on an unusual route.
