"In 2025, at least
13 vessels identified as part of the Russian "shadow fleet" or carrying Russian oil have been targeted in a series of maritime strikes and sabotage operations. These attacks, primarily attributed to Ukrainian special forces or naval drones, represent a significant shift toward targeting Russian oil logistics in international waters."
