Turkish authorities have reported multiple incidents involving explosions and fires on Russian shadow fleet tankers in the Black Sea. Two tankers were struck, causing significant damage and prompting rescue operations for the crew. Reports indicate that the blasts may have originated from naval mines or drone strikes, with at least one Gambia-flagged tanker also catching fire. Turkish maritime officials have confirmed that the crew has been evacuated from the burning vessels as the situation continues to develop, raising concerns over maritime safety in the region, particularly amidst ongoing sanctions against Russian oil export activities.
