Russian sources now report that no less than 4 tankers of Russia's shadow fleet have been struck in the Black Sea.

Aside from previously reported Delta Harmony (9408463) and Matilda (9407457), the Freud (9804461) and the Delta Supreme (9585895) were also struck. All of those ships are somewhere near the coast of Novorossiysk, Russia.

An absolute bad day for Russia's shadow fleet, but also predictable development. Ukraine has effectively imposed a full embargo of Russian oil.
