11 Jun 2026Medical EmergencyOn June 11, 2026, the Second Officer of the oil products tanker Celestial, identified as Nishanth Uirthanathan, died while the vessel was in the vicinity of Duqm, Oman. Reports indicate that the officer fell seriously ill and succumbed to his condition amid delays in an emergency medical evacuation, reportedly exacerbated by regional tensions. Following his death, the crew utilized cold water bottles to slow the rate of decomposition of the body, which remained on board for over two days.
