The U.S. military has been overseeing ship-to-ship oil transfers on the edge of the Strait of Hormuz during the conflict with Iran to keep oil flowing in the region, according to a new report.
Reuters detailed that U.S. forces have used aerial and water drones, as well as helicopters, to ensure the operations, which involved the guiding of convoys to tankers awaiting them. Such strategies have long been used by Iran to evade sanctions, the outlet added.
