A Greek shipowner sent a second oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz, bucking caution among the shipping industry as Iran lashes out across the region in response to attacks by Israel and the US.

The Smyrni, run by Athens-based Dynacom Tankers Management Ltd., signaled its location off Mumbai on Saturday morning, digital vessel-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg show. The vessel’s previous signal was inside the Persian Gulf on Tuesday, meaning it likely turned off its transponder during transit.
