France navy forces boarded the oil tanker Tagor on Sunday morning after detecting a false flag 400 nautical miles off Brittany. The vessel was traveling from Murmansk, Russia, and was subject to international sanctions linked to financing the war in Ukraine. An inspection team confirmed irregularities regarding the flag flown by the tanker.
French President Emmanuel Macron confirmed the operation on the high seas occurred with support from the United Kingdom. Macron stated that circumventing sanctions and violating the law of the sea to finance conflict is unacceptable.
