Libyan authorities have released a video and photos showing a tow rope attached to the damaged Russian gas carrier Arctic Metagaz, which has been adrift for the past three weeks in the Mediterranean Sea following a suspected attack by a maritime drone.
The vessel, which caught on fire after a reported series of explosions on 3 March, has been associated with Russia's "shadow fleet" of cargo ships carrying fossil fuels in violation of international sanctions imposed over Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in early 2022.
