PNN – Venezuela has sent a shipment of crude oil to Israel for the first time in recent years, Bloomberg reported Tuesday night, citing sources familiar with the matter.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, Bloomberg, citing sources who asked not to be identified, added that the shipment will be transferred to the Israeli Bazan refining group.
According to the report, Israel does not declare the source of imported crude oil, and tankers typically turn off their digital tracking systems when approaching the regime’s ports.
According to Kepler, this is the first time that oil has been exported from Venezuela to Israel since mid-2020. Israel last received about 470,000 barrels of oil from Venezuela.
After US forces kidnapped Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, the administration of US President Donald Trump announced that it would take control of Venezuelan oil sales.
In the past month, Venezuelan oil has also been sold to buyers in India, Spain and the United States. Before that, much of Venezuela’s oil was sold to China.
