UK targets more Russian-linked oil tankers with sanctions - Financial Times

Quick Summary:

Analysis by the Financial Times suggests the amount of Russian oil carried by these vessels has dropped from nearly 9mn barrels in November to 1mn in June.

The vessels, often old, have grown to almost 600, making up about 10 per cent of all oil tankers globally, according to the UK Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office.

In addition to undermining Russia’s oil revenues, the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office said a number of vessels used by Russia were also alleged to “double as . . .listening stations, while others are believed to be transporting weaponry to Russia”.
