Dear reader, please enjoy this week’s edition of The Officials Peering Eye. This week our report focuses on the latest developments in the Middle East, covering areas inside the Strait of Hormuz where vessels are effectively trapped. The report also covers affected refining hubs, as well as the Yanbu port on the Red Sea coast of Saudi Arabia. A note: vessel counts in the Middle East region should be read with caution. Ongoing AIS spoofing means today's snapshots swung materially within an hour of observation.
