🇮🇷⚡️ — Iran is estimated to be earning over $140 million per day from oil exports as prices rise above $100 per barrel, according to FT.

➡️ Since recent U.S.-Israeli strikes, at least 13 supertankers have loaded crude at Iran’s Kharg Island terminal, with about 24 million barrels passing through the Strait of Hormuz.

➡️ Iran is exporting roughly 1.5–1.6 million barrels per day, with most oil going to China, often at discounted prices.
