Mystery shrouds the fate of FSO Safer, an aging oil tanker moored off the west coast of Yemen, after a UN plan to transfer around 1.1 million barrels of crude oil onboard the derelict vessel to a new tanker faltered due to a lack of funding.
The FSO Safer, owned by the Yemeni government, has been floating at sea without any maintenance since the terrorist Houthi militia took control of the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, in September 2014.
