Oil tanker opens fire on vessel in the high seas.

A US flagged oil tanker off the coast of Egypt opened fire upon a small vessel that approached and did not react to any radio signals from the US vessel ordering it to identify itself. The tanker in question opened fire after the vessel penetrated the safe zone of the vessel. It turned out that Egyptian vessel was trying to sell things to the crew and one member of the crew of that vessel was killed by the tanker’s security team.
