Odaily According to foreign media reports, TankerTrackers.com, an organization that monitors ship movements via satellite imagery, stated that Iran is still transporting large quantities of crude oil through the Strait of Hormuz. Samir Madani, co-founder of the organization, said that since the outbreak of the war on February 28, Iran has transported at least 11 to 12 million barrels of crude oil through this waterway. The actual figure may be higher, but there are delays in obtaining satellite data due to the conflict. Because TankerTrackers.com monitors via satellite imagery, it can capture ship movements even when vessels turn off their digital transponders. (Jin10)
