A Swedish court on Thursday approved the seizure of a sanctioned cargo ship suspected of transporting grain from areas in Ukraine occupied by Russia.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

In March, Swedish authorities intercepted the vessel, identified as the Caffa, in the Baltic Sea while it was en route to the Russian port of Saint Petersburg.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the first case in which, following a request for international legal assistance from the Ukrainian prosecution authorities, a foreign court has approved the seizure of a vessel allegedly involved in the legal export of Ukrainian goods from the temporarily occupied territories,\u201d Ukrainian officials said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Authorities said the sanctioned ship violated entry and exit rules from the occupied Ukrainian territory and sailed with a false Guinean flag. Swedish authorities took the vessel into custody and questioned the crew.<\/p>\n

\u201cRussia continues to plunder Ukrainian resources in the temporarily occupied territories,\u201d Ukrainian prosecutors said. \u201cUkraine, however, is systematically documenting these crimes: tracing routes, identifying vessels, recording unlawful calls at ports in the occupied territories, and using all available mechanisms of international legal assistance.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Caffa was previously suspected of stealing grain from the port of Sevastopol in occupied Crimea in July 2025. The vessel later unloaded its cargo at the Russian-controlled port of Tartus in Syria, officials said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis case sends a clear message: No manipulation of flags, routes or registration records will help avoid accountability,\u201d Ukrainian prosecutors said. \u201cUkraine sees it, documents it and proves it.\u201d<\/p>\n
