Desk note: Iranian state-aligned outlets are used here as primary sources for developments inside Iran, weighted against their institutional interest in the framing. The two confirmed calls on 22 June are reported at the scale of the evidence, which is a working second vessel at a major terminal, not a freight revolution. The commercial-sustainability counter-read sits alongside the announcement rather than beneath it.
