7 Russian crude oil tankers ditch China mid-way, switch destination to India: Report

At least seven tankers carrying Russian crude oil switched their destinations mid-way from China to India in recent weeks, according to energy intelligence firm Vortexa's estimates. This comes as the US granted a 30-day "waiver" for India to buy Russian oil amid a global crisis. Notably, Indian refiners have reportedly purchased 30 million barrels of Russian oil in a week.
