On August 25, the 171 meter long, 34,801 dwt tanker Sredina (IMO: 9236975) became disabled on the northern approach to the Bosporus. The Sredina was en route to Benghazi from Novorossyisk when it suffered engine failure entering the Bosporus. The tanker went adrift and became a hazard to shipping traffic. Authorities dispatched three tugs to assist the Sredina. The tugs were able to take the tanker under tow and proceeded to an anchorage off Türkeli. No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.
