[The US is carrying out an operation
to seize a tanker linked to Venezuelan oil,
an official tells CBS, the BBC's US partner

Earlier, several military aircraft
were tracked over the North Atlantic heading
towards the vessel, the Marinera.
Footage released by Russian media
also appears to show a US vessel
close to the ship

BBC Verify is following the tanker's
journey - it's around 200km (120 miles)
south of Iceland and recently changed course

The ship is accused of breaking
US sanctions and
shipping Iranian oil - it's historically
transported Venezuelan crude oil but
reports say it's empty at the moment

Earlier, reports said Russia had deployed
a submarine and other vessels to
escort the tanker across the Atlantic]
