An emergency response plan has been put in place to address the oil spill, after reports indicated that quantities of oil are moving toward the mainland, having previously been flowing off Qabali Island. A oil slick estimated to cover approximately 400 square kilometers had already formed off the coast of Oman. Additionally, the vessel sustained damage from a projectile near Omani waters, and maritime authorities have been informed of the incident.
