The 159,000-dwt United Leadership (built 2005) is about five miles off Mohammedia in Morocco, according to information from IHS Maritime reported by Bloomberg news agency.

The ship, which is operated by Greece’s Marine Management Services and was sailing to the US Gulf, turned back on May 30 after getting about 190 miles west of Gibraltar.

Iraq’s oil marketing company Somo claims the oil shipment is illegal under the terms of the Iraqi constitution.
