The Norwegian-owned Front Altair oil tanker has left Iran’s territorial waters and was under tow to the UAE two days after it was attacked in the Gulf of Oman, shipping officials said Saturday. The tanker was one of two vessels that were rocked by explosions as they passed through Gulf of Oman waters on Thursday. The Front Altair is “heading toward the Fujairah-Khor Fakkan area in the United Arab Emirates”, head of ports of Iran’s southern province of Hormozgan told the semi-official news agency ISNA.
