The development threatens global energy stability and has prompted the UN to urge heightened vigilance by shipping companies as attacks on vessels escalate.",
        "content": "<p>The humanitarian and economic crisis looms over the Persian Gulf\nafter Iran effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz. This vital\nchokepoint, which channels about one-fifth of the world\u2019s crude oil, has\nbecome a hazardous environment for international shipping. According to\nthe latest data from the United Nations International Maritime\nOrganization (IMO), the situation has grown more acute with around\n20,000 sailors and 15,000 cruise passengers stranded in the area. Since\nthe conflict erupted on Saturday, the IMO has recorded at least seven\nattacks on commercial vessels. The consequences are severe: two people\nhave been reported killed and seven others injured. IMO\nSecretary-General Arsenio Dominguez stressed that the safety of human\nlives must be the foremost priority over economic considerations.\n\u201cBeyond the economic impact of these troubling attacks, this is a\nhumanitarian issue. No attack against innocent sailors can be\njustified.\u201d Iran\u2019s closure of the Strait of Hormuz is not only a threat\nto shipping but also to global energy stability. As the main route for\ncrude oil and liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplies, disruption at the\nstrait is expected to trigger a rise in world energy prices. Dominguez\ninstructed shipping companies to heighten high-level vigilance. \u201cI\nreiterate my call to all shipping companies to exercise maximum caution\nwhen operating in the affected area,\u201d he added.<\/p>",
