An offshore oil platform that was being towed from Scotland to Turkey has run aground near a beach off Tunisia's northern city of Bizerte, according to AFP.
The accident occurred on Saturday night when the oil rig broke away from
its towboat due to bad weather, a National Guard official told Tunisian media.
On Monday, AFP reporters saw that the platform was still stranded in El
Haouichet, some 20 kilometres west of Bizerte, with no apparent sign of damage
or oil spillage.
It remained unclear what company it belonged to and when it would be
transported again.
