Singapore — Mitsubishi Gas Chemical is considering various options to replace its methanol cargoes on its stricken tanker, Kokuka Courageous, among which include buying from the open spot market, shipping cargoes from its Brunei methanol plant or do a time swap with traders, market sources said Friday.

"The US and its regional allies must stop warmongering and put an end to mischievous plots and false flag operations in the region, " Iran's mission to the United Nations said. "Warning, once again, about all of the US coercion, intimidation and malign behaviour, Iran expresses concern over suspicious incidents for the oil tankers that occurred today.

The US narrative on this, has more holes than does a pasta colander; the US should walk away with as much grace as humanly possible; however, they are doubling down on their claims this morning,continually having looped the very grainy video that a clever 10 year old could have crash-edited together, as evidence that Iran moved a mine from one tanker.

I would far more believe President Katada, president of and owner of the vessel of the ship, in terms of what he believed he saw, and his naval background tells me that he is a credible witness; this means, of course, you will never hear another word out of him, except in the Independent media, like WRH.
