| Description | The vessel is involved in the scheme of stealing and exporting Ukrainian grain from the temporarily occupied Crimea to Turkey by reloading in a russian port the stolen Ukrainian grain previously exported from the TOT Crimea by the ‘Akubens’ vessel (IMO 8891364). · The ‘Sword Lion’ arrived in the Kerch Strait with a draft of 6 metres from the Turkish port of Karadeniz Ereğli on 02 July 2023, stayed there until 27 July 2023, after which, having changed the draft to 9.6 metres, it proceeded to the outer harbour of the port of Haifa. The recipient of the agricultural products loaded onto the vessel was the Israeli company ADM Industries Centers ltd (Beit Dagan). According to the official data of this company, the ‘Sword Lion’ vessel delivered a cargo of barley with the status of origin as European, which was not true. The vessel arrived at the outer roadstead of the port of Haifa on 03 August 2023, but did not enter the port. This was likely due to the disclosure of the scheme to steal Ukrainian grain. From 09 to 10 August 2023, the vessel sailed to the coast of Cyprus and entered the outer roads of the port of Famagusta, where it stayed until 15 August 2023 without calling at the port, probably for the same reasons. After that, the vessel moved to the roadstead of the Turkish port of Iskanderun, where, after waiting for six days with AIS turned off, it entered the port and unloaded grain at the berth of a subsidiary of the russian Magnitogorsk Metallurgical Plant. | [sources] | |||
