بحیرہ احمر میں خطرات کے باعث نہر سویز میں تیل بردار جہازوں کی آمد میں اضافہ

The Suez Canal saw its revenue rise by 42% year-on-year to $505 million in July, driven by a 27% increase in transiting ships, totaling 1,340. This surge reflects oil tankers rerouting through the Egyptian gateway to the Mediterranean, seeking to avoid escalating threats in the southern Red Sea and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Heightened geopolitical risks in key shipping lanes could sustain upward pressure on crude oil prices, potentially impacting Pakistan's import bill and contributing to inflationary pressures, which may indirectly support gold as a hedge or put pressure on the PKR.
