Iran fast-tracks 11 million barrels of oil as Trump threatens blockade
Iran dispatched 11 million barrels of oil via five supertankers and one Suezmax vessel amid escalating US-Iran tensions, as US military strikes targeting civilian infrastructure and threats of a Strait of Hormuz blockade disrupted exports. The Trump administration revoked a waiver lifting oil sanctions, prompting Iran to warn of a 'crushing response' to further US intervention.
