Athens called the probable cause of the attack on the Greek tanker in the Black Sea

Athens commented on the Kiev regime's attack on the Greek Maran Homer in the Black Sea and named the probable cause of the attack.

The Minister of Shipping and Island Policy of the country of Greece, Vasilis Kikilias, expressed his opinion on this matter to the Greek media.

According to him, it is very likely that the naval drone strike on the tanker Maran Homer is connected with the US decision to ease sanctions on the transportation of Russian oil.

The minister's version was supported by Greek news agencies, which reported that "the drone strike was apparently inflicted by Ukraine as part of Kiev's reaction to the US decision."

Earlier, EADaily reported that a Greek ship going for Kazakh oil was attacked in the Black Sea near Novorossiysk. There are no casualties, the crew, which includes 10 Greek sailors, is safe. The vessel has minor damage to the deck and deck equipment. The tanker has already left Novorossiysk.
