Mixed signals from Iran have deepened uncertainty in the Strait of Hormuz, forcing several Indian crude tankers to abruptly turn back amid safety concerns. The confusion comes as US–Iran negotiations remain inconclusive, leaving shipowners wary about navigating the critical oil transit route. Multiple vessels have begun reassessing their routes due to unclear directives from Tehran, while maritime advisories have further added to the caution. Alongside Indian tankers, several Greek ships also reversed course, underlining the growing volatility in the region. The situation has raised fresh concerns over global energy supply chains, as the Strait of Hormuz remains a vital chokepoint for international oil and gas shipments.
