The Security Service of Ukraine, in cooperation with the Navy, has struck two tankers from Russia's so-called "shadow fleet" – the Louise 1 and the Banda – in the Black Sea using naval drones.
According to the SSU, the Louise 1 was transporting Russian crude oil in circumvention of the G7 and EU oil embargo.
The vessel was exporting oil from Baltic and Black Sea ports with its automatic identification system switched off. In 2026 alone, it has transported nearly 3 million tonnes of Russian Urals crude, Russia's main export oil blend.
The Banda was also used to transport Russian oil from the country's ports, including Ust-Luga, Kerch, Novorossiysk and Nakhodka.
During the attack, Russian aircraft attempted to destroy the naval drones using machine-gun fire and bombs, but were unable to do so, the SSU said. Ukrainian strikes on Russian vessels in the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea have, in intensity, matched or even surpassed the Tanker War between Iran and Iraq in the 1980s. This pace far exceeds that of the Iran-Iraq war period, when around 450 strikes were recorded over seven years, Thomas Alexa, a senior analyst at maritime security firm Ambrey, told the publication.
"I cannot stress enough how unprecedented this is. We have never seen anything so concentrated on a global scale," he said.
Ukrainian drones mainly target ship bridges or pipelines that feed liquid cargo into onboard tanks. As a result, vessels do not sink but lose their ability to manoeuvre.
Restoring control systems can take a long time. Moreover, damaged ships must be towed to docks for repairs, while tugboats themselves also come under Ukrainian drone attacks.
