In July 2024, 4 violations of the EU embargo on seaborne imports of Russian crude oil from the Black Sea were recorded.

Two were involved the delivery of crude oil to a transshipment point in the Laconian Gulf off the coast of Greece. Two direct voyages were made to the ports of the EU countries.

Shipowners from Greece and China performed these voyages.

In July 2024, a total of 580,047 tons of Russian crude oil were delivered to the EU in violation of the embargo, compared with 275,850 tons in June 2024.
