Satellite imagery and maritime experts indicate that the sanctioned Russian shadow fleet tanker Caroline Bezengi is leaking oil in a protected marine area off Oman. Multiple reports cite evidence suggesting an active environmental incident along the Omani coastline. The vessel is described as having loaded oil in Novorossiysk, Russia, before departing on its most recent voyage. Ship tracking information referenced by the reports shows the tanker last transmitted a signal on public AIS tracking on June 11, with location data placing it in the region off Yemen. The reporting links the incident to broader efforts to disrupt Russia’s shadow fleet, noting Ukraine’s Operation Molochka, which seeks to disable such vessels in the Black and Azov Seas while aiming to avoid ecological harm. The accounts rely on satellite-based assessments rather than direct inspection, and they do not provide confirmed details on the volume of oil spilled or the immediate response measures being taken in the area.
