ANOTHER SHADOW FLEET TANKER SIEZED! - Professor Gerdes Explains 🇺🇦

[2naSalit]

Britain has now crossed a major line against Russia's shadow fleet: Royal Marines boarded and detained a sanctioned tanker in the English Channel. That matters because these ships help carry Russian oil, dodge sanctions, and keep Putin's war funded.

Britain intercepted and detained the sanctioned Russian shadow fleet tanker Smyrtos in the English Channel during a six-hour operation involving Royal Marines, the National Crime Agency, Royal Navy warships, maritime helicopters, RAF patrol aircraft, and coordination with France. The video explains why this is a major step for the UK, how Russia uses hundreds of shadow fleet tankers with obscure ownership to move sanctioned crude, and why cutting into that network matters for funding Putin's war in Ukraine.
