[Regnum] On July 26, the Pearl G tanker flying the flag of the African country of Togo was detained in the Persian Gulf with 700 thousand liters of contraband oil, the Tasnim agency reported on July 29, citing a statement by the military from the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

"The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps detained the Pearl G tanker, flying the flag of the African country of Togo, on Friday morning in the northern part of the Persian Gulf near the Arash oil field, belonging to an Iraqi who lives in the city of Dubai (United Arab Emirates)," the statement said.
It is specified that at that time the tanker was being loaded with contraband fuel from an Iranian vessel. According to initial estimates, there were at least 700 thousand liters of oil on board.
According to the Iranian agency, the tanker, along with nine crew members who are Indian citizens, was sent to Imam Khomeini Port, located in southwestern Iran in Khuzestan province.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on July 22, the Iranian military intercepted a tanker of a UAE company in the Persian Gulf. According to information from the British company Ambrey, which specializes in maritime security, the detained vessel was a tanker sailing under the flag of Togo, which was carrying 1.5 thousand tons of marine fuel (gas oil).
In January, Iranian media reported that the Iranian navy had seized a US oil tanker chartered by the Turkish company Tupras in the Gulf of Oman following a court order.
Fuel prices in Iran are among the lowest globally, increasing the profitability of smuggling operations.
