Voyage of PHOENIX

ex-BORACAY, Crude Oil Tanker, IMO: 9332810: On September 27 2025, the Boracay was detained, and on October 1, French military boarded it near the port of Saint-Nazaire, looking for signs of the vessel being used as a platform for launching drones. French President Emmanuel Macron noted that he "does not rule out" such a scenario, while Russian dictator Vladimir Putin denied it, warning of a "risk of confrontation." Earlier this year, the tanker was already detained in Estonia under the name Kiwala: the country's Navy found more than 40 violations, including movement without a valid flag.
