Iranian tanker changes course away from Turkish coast: Tracking data
[AlAhram] Iranian tanker Adrian Darya, at the centre of a dispute between Washington and Tehran, has changed course away from the Ottoman Turkish coast, Refinitiv ship tracking data showed on Thursday.

The tanker, formerly called Grace 1, was released from detention off Gibraltar in mid-August after a five-week standoff over whether it was carrying Iranian oil to Syria in violation of Europe
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
an Union sanctions.

A Ottoman Turkish official told Rooters earlier on Thursday that the Iranian tanker had not entered Ottoman Turkish waters. The tracking data showed the ship was currently between the coasts of The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
and Cyprus, heading west.

On Monday, IRIB news agency quoted an Iranian government front man as saying that Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan, the abbreviation IRGC is a cognate form of Stürmabteilung (or SA), the term Supreme Guide is a cognate form of either Shah or Führer or maybe both, and they hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
had sold the oil from the Adrian Darya and the vessel's owner will decide on its next destination.

The front man did not identify who had bought the oil. After Gibraltar freed the vessel on Aug. 18, the United States said it would take every action it could to prevent it delivering oil to Syria in contravention of U.S. sanctions.

After its release by Gibraltar the vessel, laden with 2 million barrels of oil, had initially headed to southern Greece, then switched its destination to southern Turkey's Mersin port, before removing any reference to a destination.
