France detained a Russia-linked oil tanker off the coast of Sicily this week, President Emmanuel Macron said Thursday, in the latest such seizure aimed at combatting Moscow's sanctions-busting "shadow fleet".

La nave è collegata alla cosiddetta flotta ombra di Mosca, utilizzata per eludere le sanzioni occidentali dall'invasione dell'Ucraina nel 2022

It comes after the UK announced earlier this month that it had intercepted and boarded the Russian shadow fleet tanker "Smyrtos" in the English Channel. #EuropeNews
