Russia’s willingness to directly flag ships operating in sanctioned trades points to a more permanent evolution of the shadow fleet, with direct oversight and protection from Moscow

It bears repeating how Russian shadow fleet tankers increasingly carry military officers in official Russian navy uniforms.
The officers escort, intimidate, obfuscate documents and are generally uncooperative according to the Danish pilots who have an unique insight into these ships.

Danish pilots keep reporting sightings of little green men aboard civilian vessels coming from Russia. Unfortunately the authorities don’t want to discuss these sightings. But a veteran pilot with decades of experience is willing to talk.

The hacker group Everest, which has ties to Russia, has claimed responsibility for the attack. According to Svenska kraftnät, the hackers downloaded 289 gigabytes of data from a server on an external platform that the authority uses to share information with selected players in the power industry.

Mega analysis and investigation, super interesting & useful as always !!!! Thank you !
The AIS-receiver station responsible for the mass spoof event Nov 2 in Baltic Sea show anomalous data patterns during 8 more days but returned to normalcy Nov 9.
From a baseline of ~30 ships/h, for 8 days it reported 56-113 ships/h.
Speculation: Mass spoof might have been a mistake by attacker.
