The fuel tanker is in trouble, still afloat, but listing badly to port, early morning 08 October. Her crew were all safely evacuated. A French frigate and a tug are close by and engineers are assessing if it can be towed to port without any spillage. There were no immediate reports of pollution in the Channel.
