Russia fired missiles on drifting tanker
In the moring of July 7, 2022, the 'Millennial Spirit' was fired upon by a Russian Su-30 aircraft with two Kh-31 missiles at the Odessa region. One hit the tanker, which has been drifting in Ukrainian territorial waters without a crew, and with the remains of diesel fuel on board. The second missile self-destructed over the sea. Russian forces had fired at the same tanker from warships in the Black Sea already in February. It was likely that the tanker was burning the remains of its cargo. At the time of the first strike on the tanker, there were more than 500 tons of diesel fuel on board. The tanker has been drifting in the Black Sea for four months now, and was regarded as an "environmental time bomb".
