4 days agoWoman left behind by cruise ship dies on remote tropical island
An 80-year-old passenger died on Lizard Island after being left behind by a cruise ship; authorities have opened an investigation.
French authorities said they are investigating the oil tanker Boracay anchored off the country's Atlantic Coast and suspected of being part of Russia's clandestine "shadow fleet". The Benin-flagged vessel, built in 2007 and also known as Pushpa, has been anchored off Saint-Nazaire in western France for several days. Moscow is accused of using its clandestine "shadow fleet" of ageing oil tankers to dodge sanctions imposed by Western allies over Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
