Another cargo is arriving for the MED or INDIA. If the absence of an escort is confirmed, the cargo may be less sensitive. The navigation seems a bit abnormal, and I wouldn't want to think it's a technical failure; we'll see later. @kattyfun1 , What do you think?

The crude oil tanker TEMPEST DREAM is in the West Mediterranean reported en route to the port of Tangier Med, Morocco, sailing at a speed of 1.8 kts (IMO 9308132) and sailing under the flag of Sierra Leone. The tanker, sanctioned, is maneuvering in the vicinity of the vessel RHINE MAERSK (IMO 9456991), which is not sanctioned. These activities are still normal but slightly abnormal. @jr_amon_ceuta @key2med @PeterFerrary @Gibdan1 @SONARROW_OSINT @TiaFarris10 @Richard_AHolmes

Few weeks before the cargo ship Rozana delivered its freight at the Iranian port Imam #Khomeini. The passage through the Strait of Hormuz took place with the approval of the Iranian authorities. 2/4 🧵

General Cargo LADY D is currently located on the West Coast of India. The vessel left Kochi and initially headed north, but is now sailing what appears to be a route towards GOA. It is not known whether she is escorted by Steregushchy or whether she is headed for the MED. @sonarrow_osint

The Russian Navy’s Dubna-class oiler Pechenga was reported at 08.9N, 108.4E at 1802 UTC on June 10, heading southwest at 11–15 knots (via @te3ej). Based on the last known position of the Andrey Stepanov, Pechenga appears to be heading in its direction, possibly for a rendezvous.

Russian Navy Amur-class repair vessel PM-82 has once again returned to the same rendezvous point with the Admiral Grigorovich (51.8N, 02.1E). From an OSINT perspective, the repeated use of the same meeting location is noteworthy. Recurring rendezvous points can make vessel activity more predictable, easier to track, and potentially more exposed to security risks, including monitoring by hostile actors and emerging drone threats. The return to the exact same coordinates further reinforces an identifiable operational pattern.

🚨🚨🚨 The European Union is stepping up pressure on Russian oil exports 🇪🇺 EU member states have authorized naval forces operating in the Mediterranean to stop, inspect and investigate vessels suspected of being part of Russia's shadow fleet. 🗣️ According to EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas, the measure is intended not only to enforce sanctions but also to enhance maritime safety. The broader objective is to reduce revenues that Moscow could use to support its war effort in Ukraine. ⚓ The move marks a significant expansion of the EU's maritime enforcement capabilities and could increase pressure on Russian oil flows through key shipping routes in the Mediterranean.
