## Resource

UK forces pulled off a daring nighttime raid in the English Channel, seizing a Russian shadow fleet oil tanker flying a Cameroon flag and arresting a 38-year-old Indian national — the first such operation led by Britain. Royal Marines fast-roped from a Chinook helicopter to board the vessel, which was en route to Egypt and had departed Russia earlier this month. The Ministry of Defence confirmed the interdiction, part of a months-long plan to disrupt Russia’s sanctioned oil trade and cut off funding for its war in Ukraine. Crew members from Georgia and India are cooperating with the investigation. The move, hailed by Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and UK opposition leader, marks the beginning of a broader UK-led campaign to dismantle Russia’s illicit oil network.
