Snippet of Article: "The United States “apprehended” an oil tanker off Venezuela on Saturday...It was the second time in two weeks that US forces have interdicted a tanker in the region, and comes days after President Donald Trump announced a blockade of “sanctioned oil vessels” heading to and leaving Venezuela.
“In a pre-dawn action early this morning on Dec. 20, the US Coast Guard with the support of the Department of War apprehended an oil tanker that was last docked in Venezuela...Homeland Security identified the vessel as the Centuries and said it was “suspected of carrying oil subject to US sanctions.”
Centuries is a Chinese-owned, Panama-flagged oil tanker, according to TankerTrackers, an online service monitoring oil shipments and storage."
