Tanker Capture
According to The Sun: This is an impressive moment: US forces captured yet another tanker from the shadow fleet near the Caribbean. This naval operation took place simultaneously with the detention of a worn-out oil tanker associated with Russia. The operation lasted two weeks and included a bold interception across the Atlantic.
The detained tanker M/T Sophia was under sanctions...
Such actions indicate an intensification of the fight against illegal activities in international waters. The capture of this tanker could have serious consequences for Russian oil supplies and highlights the efforts of the US to control shadow fuel trade. Observers believe that these events may impact the global oil market as Russia becomes increasingly unable to circumvent sanctions.
