| Iran on brink of ‘irreversible' damage to oil fields as storage runs out during blockade |
| 2026-04-28 |
| [NYPost] Iran is rapidly running out of space to store its oil as President Trump continues his naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz — which could lead to “irreversible” damage to the regime’s biggest industry and lifeblood of its economy. Massive supertankers have been spotted at Kharg Island, an oil-critical hub which controls roughly 90% of Iranian crude oil exports, Bloomberg reported, citing satellite imagery. But with nowhere for the crude carriers to go with the US blockade around the Gulf of Oman, experts say it is a sign that the regime is using the vessels as floating storage. Iran has repeatedly tried to push its ships through the US naval blockade, but its ships are routinely intercepted, with six tankers forced to turn back in recent days, ship-tracking data shows.
