Gulf oil exports in June rose by more than 3.00 mln b/d versus May to top 10.00 mln b/d, but remain roughly 40% below pre-war levels. UAE-led flows freed millions of barrels stranded in the Gulf, enabling producers to raise output and helping push oil prices back toward pre-war levels. Kpler shows combined crude and condensate exports from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Iraq and Iran rose by over 3.50 mln b/d to 10.07 mln b/d. Freight analytics firm Vortexa estimates June shipments at 10.20 mln b/d, up from 7.00 mln b/d in May but down from 16.50 mln b/d a year earlier.

India’s minister of information technology Krishnan said on Thursday the government is investigating a data breach at Tata Electronics that exposed documents related to Apple (AAPL.O)’s unreleased iPhone 18 Pro — the government’s first public comment. The incident has been reported to the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In). Reports say a ransomware group stole data from the Apple supplier and posted files on the dark web, including component lists, sensitive supplier lists and photos of the iPhone 18 Pro. The breach reportedly also affected Tesla and Qualcomm. Tata Group has engaged global advisers to conduct a legal audit.
