US Requests European Satellite Restrictions near Gulf

The European Union has approved a 24-hour delay in broadcasting satellite images and data from the "Sentinel-1" and "Sentinel-2" satellites of the region around the Strait of Hormuz, at the request of the United States, in order to protect security interests. This is especially important given the strategic significance of the area in the ongoing conflict between Washington and Iran. The delay covers a specific area of the Gulf of Oman, including the maritime passages leading to the strait. This exception to the European Copernicus open data policy aims to prevent unauthorized entities from exploiting the images. The decision comes as a security measure following American demands and amid escalating military tensions in the region. Previously, American companies had imposed similar restrictions on sharing images of this area.
