EXCERPT:
The United States is moving oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz even as Iran refuses to come to the table for peace talks.
A new report from Axios said that between 15 and 20 tankers per night have navigated the strait for the past several weeks. About 10 million barrels of oil are shipped out per day, which is roughly half of the pre-war level.
Tankers come in empty with a U.S. military escort and then leave full with oil from nations that are working with the U.S.
