13 Indians who were on board of a Comoros-flagged oil tanker that capsized off Oman are missing, the country’s maritime security centre said on Tuesday. The sinking was reported on Monday. The crew of “Prestige Falcon” comprised 13 Indian nationals and three Sri Lankans, the Omani centre said in a post on the social media platform X.

The maritime security centre told Reuters that the vessel remains “submerged, inverted”.It did not confirm whether the vessel had stabilised or whether oil or oil products were leaking into the sea.
According to shipping website marinetraffic.com, the vessel departed from the port of Hamriya, in Dubai and was heading for the Yemeni port city of Aden. Its location was updated four days ago.
Prestige Falcon is a 117-metre long oil products tanker built in 2007.
