news Tanker Safety4Sea
FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedin Commercial vessels transiting the Bosphorus are increasingly using improvised measures, including nets, water tanks and tyres, to protect against growing Russian and Ukrainian drone attacks in the Black Sea, according to security experts and video obtained by Reuters. As explained, the growing risks were highlighted by the abandoned Russian-flagged cargo ship Omskiy-107, whose command deck was burned out before the vessel drifted from Russian waters to a beach north of Istanbul, east of the Bosphorus. Ukraine has intensified attacks on ships and infrastructure linked to Russian oil and grain exports since July, while Russia has increased strikes on Ukraine’s main grain export hubs.
