The Boy Who Cried “Epic Rage”. Oil exports from Western Asia exceeded pre-war figures 🚀🇮🇷 On February 28, 2026, the US and Israel launched massive strikes on Iran as part of operation «Epic Fury». Washington's goal was the destruction of Iran's nuclear programme and regime change — during the strikes, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed. Tehran responded with missile and drone attacks on US bases in the region and tried to block the Strait of Hormuz, attacking commercial vessels. 🛢📈 Against the backdrop of the shelling of the trade route, a paradox occurs: Western analysts predicted a collapse of supplies, but oil exports from the region not only recovered — they exceeded the pre-war level. According to Kpler, flows reached 19.5–22.5 million barrels per day against the pre-war 18 million. ❗️ The forecasts of catastrophe were based on the Houthis' experience in the Red Sea: back then ships simply went around Africa. But in Hormuz there are almost no alternative routes — and exporters preferred to bear the costs rather than stop the flows. Tankers sail at night, along the Omani coast, with transponders switched off, under US Navy escort. Washington, by unleashing the war with Iran, created restrictions and costs for its own allies and for the entire global energy sector. Inflation, expensive fuel, supply disruptions — that is the price of Trump's adventure. But the economy did not stop: oil flows, trade lives, people work. Peaceful labour and the striving for stability are understandable to workers of all countries, unlike the geopolitical games of the imperialists. #SOVINTERN_WORLD #Hub_Asia ⭐️ Moscow Network Hub of SOVINTERN
