| Description | The tanker is involved in the transportation of sanctioned Iranian crude oil to China worth more than $100 million on behalf of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, including from storage facilities in China, which is believed to be part of an organized scheme that involves the Iranian military, which profits from the sale of Iranian oil through the vessel. The vessel resorts to deceptive, high-risk practices. On February 06, 2025, USA imposed sanctions on the vessel. | [sources] | |||
