Latest Situation Reports

Rotterdam Port Strike

A lasher strike at the Port of Rotterdam has caused significant disruptions, affecting vessel schedules and cargo flows across Europe. This supply chain impact assessment examines the strike’s impact and the resulting network spillovers across key European and global trade corridors.

Flooding in Eastern Spain

Valencia was under red alert after torrential rains caused severe flooding, disrupting transport with road closures and flight cancellations. Emergency crews have carried out multiple rescues as rising waters inundated low-lying areas and threatened infrastructure. This report focuses on the supply chain impact from the event, particularly on logistics, distribution, and potential delays across affected regions.

Super Typhoon Ragasa

Super Typhoon Ragasa battered the northern tip of Luzon. Seas were extremely dangerous (waves 8–14 m), with life-threatening storm surge for low-lying coasts. That effectively closed the Luzon Strait/Bashi Channel, a key shipping lane between the Pacific and the South China Sea. This report shows the immediate disruption to shipping in the region, including the outlook for Taiwan and South China.

Cyberattack and Disruption of European Airports

A cyberattack against Collins Aerospace’s ARINC MUSE/cMUSE platform disrupted operations at London Heathrow (LHR), Brussels (BRU), and Berlin (BER). Direct supply chain impact is centered on belly cargo capacity, as passenger disruption translates directly into reduced freight uplift. Read our situation report for a breakdown of disruption at each affected airport and related ripple effects.

Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami

A magnitude 8.8 earthquake struck off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula on July 30, 2025, generating tsunami waves up to 4 meters high. This report analyses the short-term disruptions in transportation and logistics networks, as well as the potential effects of future seismic events.

Impact of Floods in China on Global Supply Chains

Severe flooding in central and southern China has triggered Red Alerts across six provinces, submerging entire townships and disrupting mining, raw materials, and goods production. This exposes critical supply chain vulnerabilities worldwide.

Middle East Conflict: Fertiliser Shortage

The Israel-Iran conflict disrupted regional gas supplies, causing a global fertiliser shortage affecting nitrogen, phosphate, and potash. This report analyses immediate supply chain impacts and solutions.

International Dependence on Iran and the Strait of Hormuz

In mid-June 2025, amid escalating Israel–Iran tensions, Iranian officials threatened to block the Strait of Hormuz. The Strait is an economic lifeline for global energy and trade, carrying about 20% of the world’s oil (around 20 million barrels per day) and roughly one-fifth of global LNG shipments.

Israel-Iran Escalation

On 13 June, Israel launched Operation Rising Lion against Iranian targets, raising oil prices and shipping risks. This report assesses potential supply chain impacts across scenarios.

India-Pakistan Escalation

India-Pakistan tensions escalate with strikes and air clashes, the fiercest in decades, sparking global concern over regional trade. This report evaluates supply chain impacts across potential scenarios.
