Iraq is reportedly trucking large volumes of fuel through Syria to reroute
exports away from the Strait of Hormuz, rapidly turning Syria into a major
regional export hub. Within months Syria has gone from supplying no fuel to
providing more than 25% of Middle East fuel flows. Shipments move on thousands
of trucks and take about four days to reach Syrian Mediterranean ports. The
shift underscores how the Iran war is reshaping regional energy flows.
