The WSJ report suggests Iran's emergency offshore oil reserve, built up through its shadow tanker network, has largely run out after months of blockade pressure.

The newly unsealed records don't solve the mystery of the missing knife, but they show that authorities received information from a trusted federal informant who claimed knowledge about the weapon's disposal. Because the details remain undisclosed and the weapon was never recovered, the revelations raise new questions rather than providing definitive answers.
