Still, U.S. intelligence is keeping an eye on three tankers anchored at an Iraqi pipeline terminal in the Persian Gulf. U.S. officials say vesthey are worried the sels might head for nearby Iranian waters and unload the oil to be sold through Iran. "So far we have no indications of Iraqi tankers in Iranian waters," said the State Department's Ms. Tutwiler. "We would expect Iran would take appropriate measures to prevent circumvention of the embargo in their territorial waters," she said. Before the invasion, Iraq exported 2.7 million barrels a day; since then, its sales have all but stopped. The blockade also has prevented food, medicine and other vital supplies from reaching Iraq. The CIA estimates that the naval blockade by the United States and its allies has stopped most of Iraq's oil shipments.
