shadow fleet

The President of Ukraine and the Foreign Minister commented on the detention of a Russian “shadow fleet” tanker by Great Britain.

British military intercepted an oil tanker belonging to the Russian “shadow fleet” that was trying to pass through the English Channel.

Ukraine continues to strike at Russian ships involved in grain theft from the TOT. The arrested ships, in particular, replenish the state budget after being sold at auctions.

Without certification, vessels cannot obtain insurance and access to ports — the total tonnage of the vessels removed is about 13 million gross tons.

Ukraine hit the tanker of the Russian “shadow fleet” WEST Horizon in the Black Sea. The damage to the ship’s propeller and steering group has been confirmed.

Some of the Russian mercenaries who accompanied the tankers of the Russian “shadow fleet” fought against Ukraine.

The European Commission has proposed the 21st package of sanctions against Russia, which for the first time targets vessels that aid the “shadow fleet.”

Sybiha called for the use of IMO mechanisms against the “shadow fleet”, fraudulent registration of ships and illegal access to closed Ukrainian ports.

The captain faces up to a year in prison and a fine of €150,000, and the vessel may be subject to confiscation.

Along with the oil giants, new “shadow fleet” vessels and their insurers may be subject to restrictions.
