Qatar’s transport ministry announced the full resumption of maritime navigation in its territorial waters starting Sunday, ending prior restrictions. Vessel traffic will operate between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. local time, restoring normal shipping routes through the strategically vital Gulf region. The decision follows heightened regional tensions, with global oil and gas markets closely tracking U.S.-Iran talks in Pakistan for signs of de-escalation. Qatar’s move signals potential easing of maritime disruptions that had impacted energy exports and supply chains amid Middle East conflicts. The timing suggests a calculated effort to stabilize commerce as diplomatic efforts progress, though risks remain if tensions flare again.
