The Chinese cargo ship Heng Yang 9 actively entered the port of Sevastopol in September this year, ignoring international sanctions. This outraged Ukrainian officials, who suspect that the ship is carrying goods from occupied territories. Satellite data confirmed the false coordinates of the vessel, violating international law.
The Chinese ship Heng Yang 9 was provided in advance with all necessary documents to the Russian Navy Command in September, including minimum docking times
The recent visits of the ship to the port raised suspicions among Ukrainian authorities, who confirm that such activities may be aimed at supporting the occupation of parts of Donbas and the Kherson region by Russian troops.
According to the latest data, the Chinese ship has already been used in ports that are under Western sanctions, violating international law and potentially contributing to destabilization in the region.
