Fishing Banned in Filipino Town after Sunken Oil Tanker Pollutes Waters

Authorities temporarily banned fishing in Limay town in Philippines’ Bataan province, due to the fuel leak that occurred after the oil tanker MT Terra Nova, carrying 1.4 liters of fuel oil, sank.

Some dead fish were seen to have washed ashore with the fuel covering their bodies.

One of the 17 crew members was found dead hours after the ship sank during Typhoon Gaemi.
