The Government of National Unity of Libya announced on Tuesday in a statement the start of operations to salvage the Russian gas tanker that sank off the coast of Libya at the beginning of this month. The 'Gaz Spirit' tanker sank on January 10 due to rough seas. The government stated that salvage operations began after all necessary measures were taken to ensure safety and protect the environment. The salvage operation is a complex task, and authorities expressed hope for its successful completion. 'We have taken all necessary measures to ensure the safe and effective conduct of the operation,' the statement said.
