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

During the period of the G7 and EU oil embargo and the price-cap policy on russian oil, the tanker is involved in the export of russian oil (oil products) to third countries.
The vessel is affiliated with Alqutb Alshamali Marine Services LLC (UAE) with a non-transparent organizational and ownership structure, which managed the tanker and two sanctioned oil tankers IMO 9331141, IMO 9331153, affiliated with one of the leading operators of the so-called 'shadow' fleet - the sanctioned company Radiating World Shipping Services LLC as the previous manager of the tankers.
