Ship traffic in the Bosporus Strait of Istanbul is set to resume for northbound vessels as of 8:20 a.m. GMT Wednesday after a ship suffered an engine failure, the Tribeca shipping agency said.

According to a report shared by the agency, Liberia-flagged tanker Guanyin carrying diesel fuel and vacuum gasoil had an engine failure at the strait's northern entrance and two tugs were dispatched for assistance.
