The giant oil tanker Apolytares, which is carrying more than two million barrels of looted crude oil, has left the port of Al-Shihr in Hadhramaut Governorate on Saturday afternoon, a well-informed source reported.

The giant tanker had arrived a few days ago at the port of Ash Shihr, and looted more than 2 million barrels of crude oil, with a total value of more than 270 million dollars according to oil prices on the international stock exchange, which is equivalent to 162 billion Yemeni riyals the source told the Yemeni news agency Saba.

The source pointed out that the looting of crude oil comes in light of the continuation of the organised plunder by the aggression and its mercenaries of the revenues of crude oil and other natural wealth of Yemen, which contributed to cutting the salaries of state employees for over six years.

According to the navigational websites, the ship will unload its cargo in the Thai port of Si Racha.
