The United Nations has started salvage work on FSO Safer oil tanker with over one million barrels of crude oil that pose an acute risk to the environment with the possibility of it breaking apart or catching fire. The 47-year-old vessel has not been serviced since Yemen's war broke out in 2015 and was left abandoned off the Houthis-held port of Hodeidah in the Red Sea. EPA/YAHYA ARHAB
