Some time ago I noticed the Iranian dows filling up with cargo on the quayside in Derra. Everything from food to printers to the latest tvs. If you went further down you would see the Somali dows filling up with cargo, which included a car or two precariously loaded on an imbalanced dow. I guess this is one way of getting round sanctions that various organisations try and impose.
I can't see that stopping in the near future.
