Иранский ВМФ открыл огонь по румынской нефтевой платформе

Нефтевая платформа "Оризонт", находящаяся около острова Куш с 2004 года, была сначала обстреляна с иранского военного корабля а потом оккупированна десантом с него же. Контакт с персоналом находящимся на борту платформе потерян.

BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) -- A Romanian oil rig off the coast of Iran came under fire from an Iranian military warship and was later occupied by Iranian troops, a company spokesman said.

The Iranians first fired into the air and then fired at the Orizont rig, said GSP spokesman Radu Petrescu. Half an hour later, troops from the ship boarded and occupied the rig and the company lost contact with the 26 crew members shortly afterward.

Petrescu said he had no information about any injuries or deaths. The Orizont rig has been moored near the Kish island since 2004, he told the Associated Press.
