		</div><p>A Japanese chemical tanker has collided with a cargo vessel off the coast of south-western Japan.</p>
<p>No-one was injured among the six Japanese crew aboard the tanker Ryoshinmaru, or among the 14 Chinese crew on the Belize-registered cargo ship Xin Hai 99.</p>
<p>The crash early on Saturday is under investigation and both ships are anchored in the area, about 2.2 miles off the coast of Wakayama Prefecture.</p>
<p>A Kushimoto Coast Guard official said some oil leaked from the engine area of the cargo ship, which initially started to sink, but it was brought under control.</p>
<p>The tanker had left Kobe port to pick up chemicals from another Japanese port and did not have any chemicals on board at the time of the accident.</p>
<p>Divers are being sent to the scene and GPS records are being pursued to determine the cause of the accident.</p>
<p>The Chinese crew told the coast guard the tanker had suddenly veered towards them, the official added.</p>
