Dryad Global CEO Corey Ranslem on Iran Ship Seizures and Strait of Hormuz Risk | BBC Interview

Dryad Global CEO Corey Ranslem speaks to the BBC following reports that Iran seized two cargo ships in the Strait of Hormuz after multiple vessels came under fire from Iranian forces.

The incident highlights the growing operational risk facing commercial shipping in one of the world’s most strategically important maritime chokepoints. With tensions between the US and Iran continuing, and uncertainty around access through the Strait of Hormuz, ship operators are facing a fast-moving threat environment where geopolitical escalation, vessel targeting, navigation disruption and wider maritime security risks are increasingly interconnected.

In this interview, Corey Ranslem provides expert insight into what the reported seizures could mean for commercial shipping, maritime security, global trade and vessel operators transiting the region.
