    Seems that is due to the change in powder classification from 1.4S to 1.3 - increased mass explosion hazard. I can't for the life of me work out what drove that - I would hazard a guess that the Israelis and Ukrainians aren't being restricted by that. Maybe a bit of a tool to try to drive down 'non-essential' demand haha.

    I would also put forward the opinion that if weight is restricted to 2 ton, bloody near more effective to charter a plane! All the advantages of sea freight just fell over. Maybe even run a special trip for a small freight boat...
