Iran's economy is facing a severe cash crunch, with oil income dwindling and oil 'intermediaries' owing the government billions. The situation is further complicated by Iran's decision to ship some liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and jet fuel to countries like Myanmar, despite a US blockade.

Iran International reported on the shipment of jet fuel to Myanmar, while Energy Intelligence highlighted the decline in oil income and Gulf leverage. The exact reasons behind this move are unclear, but it has significant implications for global markets and the Iranian economy.

The question now is how this will impact the global economy and what the US will do in response.
