What happened

Well supportedReported by 7 independent outlets

The war in the Strait of Hormuz is disrupting global oil flows and supply chains. Following attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz, Donald Trump ordered fresh strikes against Iran, leading to crude prices soaring and Brent topping $80 a barrel. The Strait of Hormuz is a critical maritime corridor through which approximately one-fifth of the world's traded oil and gas passes.
