  1. Emergency at Sea! As the West Asia conflict intensifies, the LPG tanker GM 2 has been forced to seek refuge at Kollam Port. En route from China to Sharjah, the vessel was stranded for days as the Strait of Hormuz remains a high-risk zone. With fuel and drinking water almost gone, the crew is now safe in Kerala waters. This is the second vessel to seek shelter in Kollam this month after the Saudi ship Zaki Vision. english.mathrubhumi.com/news/k #WestAsiaWar #KollamPort #MaritimeNews #StraitOfHormuz

  5. Down there, 40 miles off the coast, the water doesn't recognize a 'prize ship' or a military objective. It just sees steel and wood and the same cold pressure for everyone. My thoughts are with the sailors out there. No matter what the briefing room says, no sailor deserves to go down in the dark.

  6. In the shipping world, we get caught up in the 'geopolitics' the Strait of Hormuz routes, the insurance premiums, the sanctions. But seeing those reports about the recovery teams in Galle… it’s a brutal reminder of the ocean's indifference to our flags and our conflicts.
