TEHRAN, Iran—A large Iranian oil tanker that collided with a cargo ship in the East China Sea had sunk and there are no hopes of finding any survivors, Chinese and Iranian state media said Sunday. The 899-foot Sanchi, carrying one million barrels of light crude, had been burning since the collision with the 738-foot CF Crystal off the coast of Shanghai on Jan. 5. The tanker, which drifted toward Japanese waters, had a crew of 30 Iranians and two Bangladeshis.
