(Reuters) - The second of a group of three Iranian tankers entered Venezuelan waters on Wednesday, carrying fuel for the gasoline-starved nation, which is struggling under a collapsing oil industry and U.S. sanctions that have crippled imports and exports.
The Iran-flagged vessel Fortune reached Venezuela's exclusive economic zone at 1:45 a.m. local time (0545 GMT), following the same route as the Forest, which docked at Venezuela's El Palito port on Monday to discharge fuel, according to Refinitiv Eikon tanker tracking data and sources.
