Positive0
GreyOak summary
India's crude imports from the Persian Gulf exceeded those from Russia for the first time since the Iran war began. Gulf shipments reached 2.1 million barrels daily via the Strait of Hormuz, surpassing Russian imports of 1.8 million barrels. This shift is driven by competitive Gulf pricing and restored flows after earlier disruptions caused by attacks on the waterway.
