Maritime logistics is critically important for building up the aggressor`s military capabilities, moving troops, obtaining weapons and sanctioned goods, and trading stolen goods. Aggressors transport weapons through international straits on civilian merchant vessels. Exporting fossil fuels to circumvent sanctions is the main source of income for russia and Iran. The shadow tanker fleet and ships without ice class in the Arctic threaten an environmental disaster. Through the sale of agricultural products from the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories, russia finances the war and maintains the loyalty of its allies, Iran and the DPRK.
Together we can stop this to restore peace and security

The tanker has been implicated in the export of russian crude oil/petroleum products during the period of the G7 and EU oil embargo and price cap policy on russian crude oil/petroleum products.
The owner and manager of the tanker since 2019 is the russian company Trinity Shipping LLC (ООО "Тринити Шиппинг", TIN 7813270750), whose main activity is sea freight transport. As of June 14, 2025, the company’s fleet includes seven additional oil tankers (IMO 9038969, IMO 9585912 — under sanctions since June 2025, IMO 9282986 — under sanctions since May 2025, IMO 9288930 — under sanctions since May 2025, IMO 9105140 — under sanctions since May 2025, IMO 9585924, IMO 9676230) sailing under the russian flag.
Among them is the tanker IMO 9676230, which, according to the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), was implicated in oil supply deliveries to Syria in 2016–2018. This vessel is affiliated with the russian company Transpetrochart LLC (ООО "ТранспетроЧарт", TIN 7825484443, under U.S. sanctions).

Transpetrochart LLC has also been associated with the supply of jet fuel and oil products from the Feodosia oil depot to the Syrian port of Tartus for use by russian military forces in Syria, including the so-called "Syrian squadron" of the russian navy.
