Libyan forced sealed off the area surrounding the tanker before the tanker attempt to enter international waters. "The navy made sure its attempt was only to stop the tanker from moving ahead, without causing any damage or casualties to its crew," the spokesman for oil facilities protection Waleed Al-Tarhoni told KUNA.
