That tanker that floats around in the baltic has 100.000 Tonnes of crude oil in it.

Must be worth something.

Also if you stop a shadow tanker from operating, Russia has one less revenue.

If you are referring to Eagle S, it carried 35 000 tons of unleaded fuel.

We Finns have impounded the contents.

The ship itself will probably not be released back, due it being a tool for crime. Likely it will be sold in order to decrease the repair costs of the cable. Or stripped for parts.

The seamen operating it are being processed by our judical system for crimes: 9 (out of 24) are suspected for sabotage and disrupting communications.

Nice.

I did think about another ship though the Enentin tanker, friday it just stopped moving and started drifting, the germans towed it.
