Indian LPG Tankers Exit Strait of Hormuz as Iran Halts Qatar LNG Ships

Two more Indian-flagged LPG tankers, including the Green Asha, have crossed the Strait of Hormuz, leaving only one vessel remaining. Meanwhile, Iran halted two Qatar LNG tankers that it had previously cleared to transit the strait. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz is dividing the fortunes of Middle Eastern oil states and raising European energy concerns, with Libya's oil disputes mirroring the crisis.
