For the very first time ever an Ukrainian drone attacked a Russian shadow fleet tanker in the Mediterranean Sea. What makes it also interesting is that no USV was used but a grenade dropping drone. The message is clear: no Russian tanker, no matter where, is safe.

Ukraine's SBU security service says its Sea Baby naval drones today struck another Russian “shadow fleet” tanker in the Black Sea. Video from an SBU source purports to show the oil tanker "Dashan" being hit by the attack drone and explosions in the stern area.

It was moving at maximum speed with its transponder turned off." The SBU says the tanker "suffered critical damage." The attack was a joint operation with the Ukrainian Navy.
