British oil tanker seized by Iran could be released soon



STOCKHOLM: Sweden media reported that a British oil tanker seized last month by Iran in the Strait of Hormuz is to be released soon.

The Stena Impero, British-owned but operated by Swedish company Stena Bulk, was captured by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards on July 19 after passing through the strait at the mouth of the Gulf.

The vessel is expected to be released within a few days, Sweden media reported, citing a source with insight into the talks that took place between Wallstrom and Zarif.
