Maritime tracking service TankerTrackers says two Iranian supertankers have successfully exited a US Navy blockade area, marking "Iran's first crude oil exports in two months".
According to the group's statement on X, automatic identification system data and satellite imagery from 15 June confirmed that the National Iranian Tanker Company's vessels Diona and Hero 2 left the blockade perimeter "carrying a combined total of 3.8 million barrels of Iranian crude oil between them".
TankerTrackers said the development marked a significant step for Iran's oil exports after weeks of disruption.
The group also reported that a third NITC tanker, Stream, "is approaching the blockade line from the EEZ [exclusive economic zone] of Pakistan; where it spent the past 7 weeks waiting to enter Iran".
