French President Macron has announced the seizure yesterday of the tanker the Tagor in the Atlantic. The British Royal Navy provided support.
It is reported that the vessel was en route from Murmansk, and so was presumably carrying cargo.
The vessel was in international waters some 400 nautical miles west of France, and is suspected of sailing under a false flag.
