[Black Sea oil tanker caught fire after attack, Russia rescued all 23 Indian crew members] On October 7, according to a report from the Russian Ministry of Transport, a Liberian-flagged oil tanker caught fire after being attacked by a drone in the Black Sea on the evening of the 6th. Russian emergency personnel successfully rescued all 23 crew members. The Russian Ministry of Transport issued a notice on social platforms saying that the oil tanker was attacked by a drone launched by an unmanned ship at sea, and "crude oil is burning on the surface of the Black Sea." Because the fire was too violent, Russian firefighters were temporarily unable to put out the fire. They can start putting out the fire after the fire weakens. The report stated that all 23 crew members on board were Indian citizens and all had been rescued and no one was injured. The beach area near the incident site has been controlled and entry is prohibited. According to AFP, the tanker was attacked by Ukraine. In recent weeks, both Russia and Ukraine have threatened to escalate their strikes. Russia stormed key bridges in the Ukrainian capital of Kiev, Ukrainian port facilities and the Ukrainian military logistics center. Ukraine attacked the Russian capital Moscow and oil facilities in southern Russia, causing oil spills on the sea, beach closures and black rain.
