Trouble at sea
150
There is a big fight at sea. The USA and Iran attack each other. 6000 sailors are stuck on ships. The ships cannot move. The people have a bad time. They lack water and food. Medicine is also rare. Owners leave their ships. The UNO worries a lot. 17 people died since February.
The sea route is very important for trade. Ships bring oil and gas. Fewer ships drive there now. Oil gets more expensive. Arab Emirates build new ports. Ships can dock there safely. Trucks bring goods to towns. A new oil pipe is also built. It will be ready in 2027.
The new ports help firms in Europe. Trade ways are safer now. But the sea route remains the main way. The USA want control back. Volker Türk from UNO asks for help. He wants to save the sailors. The people on ships suffer from isolation.
