US sells two oil tankers after Venezuela operation
The United States has detained two oil tankers that were subject to sanctions, after their operation in Venezuela. They were subsequently sold last month to a ship recycling company for an undisclosed amount. The two tankers, Ira and Lilio, previously operated under the names Marinera and Bella 1, and the other under Galileo and Veronica. They are set to be dismantled at scrap yards in India. This operation follows the U.S. Forces' seizure of the tanker Ira in January offshore Iceland. The Ira had been used to transport sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran and was confiscated by the United States after a weeks-long chase.
