BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

UK warship to escort oil tankers in Strait of Hormuz

July 26, 2019 Reprints

The United Kingdom has decided to send a warship to escort British-flagged oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz amid increasing Iran-related security concerns, Reuters reported. Iranian commandos seized a British-flagged oil tanker in the Persian Gulf on July 19 after British forces captured an Iranian oil tanker near Gibraltar on July 4. The cost of insuring a ship sailing through the region has increased tenfold, prompting some ship owners to avoid the area entirely.
