Casualties
| Date | Type | Details |
|---|---|---|
| 05 Apr 2026 | Engine Fault | Experienced an engine breakdown near the Çanakkale Bridge in Turkey. The Çanakkale Ship Traffic Services Centre coordinated the incident response, deploying a local pilot and utilizing tugboats Rescue-20, Rescue-15, and Rescue-16 to provide towing and support. The vessel was successfully secured at the Şevketiye Anchorage Area. |
| 07 Jan 2026 | War Damage | Attacked by drones while transiting the Black Sea near Turkey, sustaining damage to its upper section but remaining seaworthy. No crew injuries or pollution were reported. After the attack, the tanker diverted towards the Turkish coast and anchored near İnebolu, where the Turkish Coast Guard assisted with inspection. This incident resembles recent Ukrainian attacks on Russian tankers, though Ukraine has not claimed responsibility. |
