Three Saudi-flagged supertankers with six million barrels of crude onboard have sailed through the Strait of Hormuz, ship tracking data shows, according to Reuters.

The sailings from Saudi ports were the biggest departures through the strait in weeks, according to Reuters analysis of shipping movements.

Saudi Arabia has mainly used its Red Sea port terminal of Yanbu to ship out oil due to the conflict.
