Matros Shevchenko is back in port at Lomé TGO. It is possible that it will carry the cargo of yellowcake uranium to RUS and its return to harbor from being at anchor in the Gulf of Guinea could mean that the trucks carrying the yellowcake arrived at Lomé and it is now being loaded onto the ship.

At the same time, two Russian ships, the Yelnya and the Stoikiy, have been spotted in the Gulf of Guinea. Their presence fuels speculation that the uranium is about to be shipped to Russia, to the detriment of West African security.
