An LPG tanker sailing to India has crossed the Strait of Hormuz amid the US-Iran war in the Middle East, sources said. The vessel passed the strait this afternoon without any incident.
Another tanker will also sail for India soon, they said.
The confirmation coincided with a comment by Iran's Ambassador to India, Mohammad Fathali, today that Tehran will provide safe passage to vessels bound for India through the Strait of Hormuz, citing longstanding friendship and shared interests between the two countries.
