Es tauchen unbestätigte Berichte und Videos über den sanktionierten russischen LNG-Tanker „Arctic Metagaz“ auf, der Teil der russischen Schattenflotte ist. Das deutet darauf hin, dass das Schiff vor der Küste Maltas und Libyens brennt. Das Schiff wurde angeblich von unbekannten Marinedrohnen angegriffen.

    Looks like it is confirmed.

    >Russian-flagged sanctioned LNG tanker on fire in the Mediterranean, crew fate unknown – sources

    >LONDON, March 3 (Reuters) – The Russian flagged liquefied natural gas tanker Arctic Metagaz ​is on fire in the ‌Mediterranean with the fate of its crew unknown, shipping and maritime security ​sources said on Tuesday.

    >The ​vessel, which is under U.S. and ⁠UK sanctions, last reported its ​position as sailing off the ​coast of Malta on Monday, according to ship tracking data on the MarineTraffic ​platform.

    >The vessel may have been ​attacked by a naval drone with Ukraine ‌suspected ⁠of carrying out the operation, one of the sources said without providing evidence.

    >The vessel’s Russia-based manager ​LLC SMP ​Techmanagement, Russian ⁠LNG producer Novatek and Russia’s transport ministry didn’t ​immediately respond to requests ​for ⁠comment.

    >The Security Service of Ukraine separately did not immediately respond to ⁠a ​request for comment.

    Until no russians stand on Ukrainian soil, I hope no russian vessel is safe.

  3. Suspect Ukraine has had abundant plans like this in their back pocket, usually deciding against – as they would risk US and/or EU support.

    But for the next few weeks, Ukraine can probably do whatever they like without it breaching Donnie’s tiny and completely overwhelmed attention span. The EU is similarly focused elsewhere.

    This should be Ukrainian spec-ops time to shine.

    Was Russia exporting gas/oil from Sevastopol through the Suez and Straits of Hormuz? They may be about to have to transport a lot more through the Mediterranean.

    I have a feeling that this one is not going to get towed.

    russian lng….

    All russian vessels should be subject to kinetic Ukrainian sanctions, unless strictly proven and verified purely civilian evacuation/refugees fleeing russia.

    The dream is to have the northern russian fleet hit by navel drones, I can but dream

  7. This LNG tanker, on the prior load, sent LNG to China. It was headed to the Suez Canal before being hit.
