An Iranian oil tanker has sunk, after burning for more than a week, after a collision in the East China Sea.
State media reported on Monday that a large amount of oil was burning in the surrounding waters.
Still photos provided by the Japanese Coast Guard also showed flames on the surface of the water which is within Japan’s exclusive economic zone.
The tanker’s crew consisted of 30 Iranians and two Bangladeshis. And so far, only three bodies have been recovered and just hours before the vessel sink.
