A tanker was hit by a “large explosion” in the waters off Kuwait, causing an oil spill, British maritime security agency UKMTO said today.
“The Master of a tanker at anchor, reports witnessing and hearing a large explosion on the port side then seeing a small craft leave the vicinity” off the Gulf state’s Mubarak Al-Kabeer area, the agency posted on X.
“There is oil in the water coming from a cargo tank which could have some environmental impact”.
