Emergency crews on Tuesday rescued the ‌23-member crew of a Liberian-flagged tanker, the Aframax Rio, which was set ablaze off Russia’s Black Sea coast after coming ⁠under attack from an unmanned vessel, Reuters reported, citing the Russian Transport Ministry.

The ministry, in a report posted on Telegram, said the crew was made up entirely of Indian nationals. It said there were ‌no ⁠injuries.

Russian regional authorities in ⁠the settlement of Sirius had earlier reported the fire aboard the tanker. Beaches in ⁠the settlement in Russia’s south Krasnodar region were closed to ⁠the public, the authorities said.

Some Telegram channels report that the fire on the tanker broke out following strikes by Ukrainian naval drones.
