Encyclopedia > Beira Patrol

The Beira Patrol was a blockade of oil shipments to Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) through Beira, Mozambique, resulting from United Nations trade sanctions after Rhodesia declared its independence. The patrol lasted from 1966 to 1975, during which various Royal Navy ships cruised the Mozambique Channel checking on oil tankers going to Beira, which was the terminus of a pipeline running inland to Rhodesia.
