A blaze has been brought under control on a Cypriot aframax tanker off Taiwan.
Eight crew members were taken off the 105,000-dwt Marquessa (built 2006) on Tuesday, while 16 others were due to remain on board until the Cypriot-owned vessel was brought into port.
A rescue team from Taiwan's National Rescue Command Centre had airlifted the seafarers from the tanker 16.5
