Iran has escalated attacks on oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, targeting seven vessels in five days under 'non-compliance' lists, causing a near-total halt of tanker traffic. This marks a significant escalation from prior sporadic incidents, directly threatening global energy supply. The full impact on oil markets and potential international response remains uncertain.
