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 G7 and EU oil embargo and price cap policy on russian crude oil / petroleum products, the tanker is involved in the export of russian crude oil / petroleum products from russian ports in the Baltic and Black Seas using deceptive practices (AIS deactivation, active engagement in dark activities in the Kerch Strait area, ports of Ukraine's temporarily occupied territories, and in the area of russian ports in the Baltic Sea).
The vessel calls at ports in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, in particular in May 2025 at the ports of Kerch and Kamysh-Burun.
The tanker is affiliated with the Turkish company Beks Tanker Isletmeciligi AS, which managed the vessel from November 2022 to March 2024. Beks Tanker Isletmeciligi AS is one of the top three Turkish operators that transported hundreds of millions of barrels of russian crude oil and petroleum products in 2023.
In March 2024, management of the tanker was transferred to the Turkish company Sand Gemi Isletmeciligi AS. Sand Gemi Isletmeciligi AS shares the same legal address as two other Turkish ship managers, Cape Gemi Isletmeciligi AS and Tokyo Gemi Isletmeciligi AS. Eight tankers belonging to these companies were managed by Beks Tanker Isletmeciligi AS in 2023 and early 2024, and one by the sanctioned Beks Gemi Isletmeciligi ve Tic.
