An official confirmed on Friday that the giant ship "Maran Canopus" departed on Thursday from al-Dhaba port in Hadhramout province, with nearly 2 million barrels of looted crude oil.

The official explained that the ship arrived on August 6 at the port of al-Dhaba and loaded nearly two million barrels of crude oil, with a total value estimated at $200 million.

The looting of the Yemeni crude oil is just a part of a series of organized looting by the aggression and its mercenaries to the country's revenues, while the state employees' salaries are still suspended for more than six years, the official said.

According to the navigational websites, the ship is heading to the Chinese port of "Rizhao" to unload its cargo.
