32 people were reported missing after an Oil Tanker collided with a cargo ship off China’s eastern coast on Sunday. The oil Tanker, 'Sanchi', registered in Panama collided with 'CF Crystal', a Hong Kong registered cargo ship, about 160 nautical miles off the coast of Shanghai, at about 8pm local time. The accident caused the Tanker, which was carrying 136,000 tonnes of oil condensate, to catch fire, spilling oil into the sea and losing contact. All 21 Chinese crew on board the cargo ship were rescued, while the missing 30 Iranians and two Bangladeshi citizens, are all crew members from the Oil Tanker. Chinese Maritime authorities dispatched eight ships for the search-and-rescue operation.
