Summary
A covert maritime operation is quietly keeping oil flowing through the Strait of Hormuz, with U.S. military drones and aircraft escorting tankers at night to evade detection—possibly moving over 100 million barrels past Iran’s blockade. Ships vanish from tracking systems, transferring cargo in the Gulf of Oman before returning, while analysts estimate millions of barrels daily still slip through. Despite these efforts, global oil prices remain under pressure as inventories dwindle and summer demand surges, turning the high seas into a tense game of cat and mouse.
