This incident marks the sixth mysterious tanker explosion in Russian ports this year. The Eco Wizard, part of Russia's 'shadow fleet' that bypasses sanctions, was evacuated with no casualties reported. The tanker had arrived in St. Iago from Antwerp on July 3 and was carrying 1 million barrels of oil at the time of the explosion. Authorities are investigating the incident, considering it an 'incident of an unknown nature' with emergency services active at the site.",
