Second ship breaks US' Hormuz siege: Trump's blockade unsuccessful Vs Iran & its allies? | China

Reuters-cited tracking data said the medium-range tanker, owned by Shanghai Xuanrun Shipping Co Ltd, was carrying about 250,000 barrels of methanol loaded at the UAE’s Hamriyah port, while reports also identified the vessel as Malawi-flagged and crewed by Chinese nationals.
