| 20 Dec 2025 | Other | Oil tanker Centuries (IMO 9206310) was intercepted by the U.S. Coast Guard on December 20, 2024, in international waters east of Barbados. The Panama-flagged vessel was seized under a presidential "blockade" for allegedly transporting sanctioned Venezuelan oil. Venezuela has denounced the action as piracy; the vessel had not been previously sanctioned by the U.S. (This is the second such interception in recent weeks). |
