UK Hits Putin’s Shadow Fleet In 1st-Ever Raid, Seizes Russian Oil Tanker As Russia Cries ‘Piracy’

In a first-of-its-kind operation, British forces boarded and detained a tanker linked to Russia's shadow fleet in the English Channel, targeting a vessel carrying more than 700,000 barrels of sanctioned oil. The six-hour raid involved Royal Marines, helicopters, warships, and National Crime Agency officers, marking a major escalation in sanctions enforcement against Moscow's oil exports. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky welcomed the move, while Russia condemned it as "state piracy." The operation reportedly followed months of planning and was conducted under strict conditions to avoid any direct confrontation with Russian naval assets.
