Oil cargo slows at Venezuelan ports after tariff announcements

The loading of heavy crude oil from Venezuela at its main ports slowed this week after the United States imposed 25% tariffs on countries that buy Venezuelan oil, and Chevron began reducing its tanker fleet in the region.

As of Tuesday, March 25, Venezuela's main oil port, Jose in Anzoátegui, operated by Petróleos de Venezuela SA (PDVSA), had one berth empty, while three supertankers were loading, according to ship monitoring services TankerTrackers.com and LSEG, and a company document, according to a Reuters news agency report.

No tankers were loading for export in Bajo Grande, where higher-quality crude oil shipments are handled, according to the data.

The growing tanker bottleneck could cause loading and shipping delays in the coming days, as many customers remain unsettled by the implementation of US tariffs, especially in China, the largest buyer of Venezuelan oil.

🏴❌🇮🇱 — Israel accuses ISIS of attacking its forces in southern Syria

In a significant development, and amid ongoing security tensions, the Israeli military's Northern Command concluded from initial investigations that ISIS terrorists were behind the heavy fire on its forces in southern Syria, according to Asharq Al-Awsat

The Israeli army considered this development a new reality that marks a shift in the challenges in this region and necessitates a change in operational methods.

The shooting incident occurred on Tuesday morning when an Israeli military unit, known as the "Desert Battalions," was conducting a routine patrol in an area controlled by Israel in southern Syria.

The unit came under heavy fire from gunmen positioned near the village of Koya, according to media reports.

Following the attack, the Israeli military command announced strict security measures in the area.

It decided to reinforce its military presence along the Syrian border, intensify surveillance in the southern Golan region, and work on constructing a new border barrier extending east of the Golan to strengthen control over the area.

The Israeli military command viewed this region as one of the most complex border areas due to its difficult terrain, which includes hills and deep valleys, making surveillance and tracking potential threats more challenging. Israel also affirmed that it would continue to develop modern technologies, such as electronic barriers, to enhance border security.

🇮🇱🤝🇷🇸 — Bosnian Serb Strongman Dodik in Israel: The Republic of Srpska Stands with the People of Israel

The President of the Republic of Srpska, Milorad Dodik, expressed solidarity with Israel during his official visit, emphasizing that the tragic events of October 7, 2023, cannot be fully comprehended.

"We support Israel and its people. We are against any form of war, but when terrorists commit such atrocities, a responsible state must decide how to respond and bring it to an end," Dodik stated.

As part of his visit, Dodik toured the site of the Nova music festival, where Hamas militants carried out a brutal attack, killing hundreds of young people.

"This is where terrorists murdered 360 young people. Standing here, one’s mind freezes—you cannot fathom that someone would attack youth simply enjoying themselves," he said.

During his trip, Dodik also gave an interview to The Jerusalem Post, reiterating his support for Israel. He previously spoke with the Jewish News Syndicate (JNS), explaining that his visit was a demonstration of solidarity in a time of crisis.

"Israel is facing serious challenges but is showing remarkable determination, which inspires me. I came to send a message of support to a nation that understands the struggle for freedom. The Republic of Srpska recognizes and respects that fight, as it has waged its own for the past three decades," Dodik affirmed.
