India-linked LPG carriers have successfully navigated the highly sensitive Strait of Hormuz, breaking through weeks of restricted traffic and geopolitical tension. The vessel Sarv Shakti, carrying approximately 45,000 tons of liquefied petroleum gas, has entered the Gulf of Oman after passing near Iranian-controlled islands under intense surveillance. Another tanker, Desh Garima, is believed to have completed its transit using signal suppression tactics, highlighting the high-risk environment currently dominating one of the world’s most critical energy chokepoints.

The United States has reportedly carried out a powerful strike on a key ammunition and military facility in Iran’s Isfahan using 2000-pound bunker buster bombs. Officials say multiple penetrator munitions were used, indicating hardened underground targets linked to Iran’s military and nuclear infrastructure. Formerly hinted by President Donald Trump, the strike was followed by a dramatic video showing successive explosions, fires and thick smoke rising into the night sky. The visuals suggest secondary detonations likely caused by stored ammunition at the site.
