About this video

Iraqi authorities announced early Thursday that they rescued the crew of a foreign oil tanker that was “attacked” in the country’s territorial waters off the southern coast, amid the ongoing war in the Middle East.

Farhan Al-Fartousi, Director General of the Iraqi Ports Company, told the Iraqi News Agency that “Iraqi port crews managed to rescue the crew of a foreign oil tanker that was attacked in territorial waters, numbering more than 20 people.”

This comes as the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad warned that Iran and Iran-backed armed Iraqi factions may be “planning” to target U.S. energy facilities in Iraq.
