LNG tanker crossing Strait of Hormuz eases supply concerns amid conflict.

The first liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanker since the West Asia conflict began has reportedly crossed the Strait of Hormuz, marking a potential easing of disruptions at a critical global energy chokepoint. The vessel, which loaded cargo from Abu Dhabi, was seen off India after weeks of silence, and is en route to China. This follows a two-month near halt in shipping due to rival blockades by Iran and the United States, though uncertainty remains as oil prices stay elevated.
