Warships are increasingly protecting oil tankers as they carry crude through one of the world’s most critical waterways

On Thursday, a British-flagged tanker transited the Strait of Hormuz under naval escort, while another vessel off the coast of Saudi Arabia delayed crude loading and appeared to await an escort, according to London-based cargo tracker Kpler.
