EXCERPT:
Eight weeks after the Trump administration launched Operation Economic Outcast, Iran’s shadow fleet has run out of oil
After the U.S. imposed a blockade on Iranian ports in mid-July, dozens of China-bound Iranian oil tankers were stranded in Asian ports. Latest news reports suggest that they have now been reduced to empty vessels. The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that “dozens of oil tankers holding millions of barrels of crude” floating in Asian waters have “dried up.”
