The VLCCs are approaching Lavan Island in the southern Gulf after appearing to leave Kharg in recent days. With at least 20 tankers of various sizes anchored east of Kharg, Iran likely has plenty more crude ready to ship out of the Gulf.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/usmovingexpertss.com\/?p=1838\">Iran says Hormuz closed again as talks with US set to open<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p><i>Copyright 2026 Tribune Content Agency.
