Iran's Kharg Island halts oil tanker loading for 4 days, signaling supply disruption amid US blockade.

Iran's key oil export terminal at Kharg Island has not loaded any oil tankers for four consecutive days, an unprecedented event since the conflict began. This halt may indicate a shortage of storage and tankers, possibly caused by a US naval blockade or an oil slick, impacting global oil supply and prices. With up to 90% of Iran's crude exports going to China, this disruption could give US President Trump leverage in upcoming talks with China. The situation remains uncertain and will be closely monitored for further developments.
