Dutch Coast Guard approached false flagged tanker believed to be part of Russian shadow fleet
The 'White Condor I' was approached by plane by the Dutch Coast Guard because the ship is on the European sanctions list and is sailing under a false Aruban flag. It is suspected that the tanker is part of the Russian shadow fleet. Contact was made with the captain during the night of Aug 19, 2025, and the responsibility for the safe navigation of the vessel was emphasized. Vessels flying the flag of Aruba or Sint Maarten are therefore considered fraudulent. An inspection by the Royal Association of Netherlands Shipowners (KVNR) revealed at the end of August that a total of 59 members of the shadow fleet were sailing under the false flags of Aruba, Sint Maarten, and Curaçao. The 'White Condor I' changed its flag from Panama to Aruba on June 29. The ship departed the Russian port of Primorsk in mid-August and ancored near Itanhaem in pos. 24° 15' N 046° 17' W on Sep 8 with destination Santos.
