Tanker and oil facilities attacked by Ukraine
The Ukrainian military said on May 24, 2026, that it had struck Russia's Sheskharis oil terminal, one of the largest on the Black Sea - and the nearby Grushova oil depot. The overnight attack sparked a fire at the Sheskharis terminal. The 'Chrysalis' was hit in the Black Sea, as the Ukraine has sharply increased the number and scale of its strikes on Russian oil refining and transportation facilities, seeking to reduce Russia's revenues from oil and gas exports, which the Kremlin uses to finance its war. During the first 23 days of May, Ukrainian drones have attacked 13 major Russian oil facilities. Six of Russia's 10 largest oil refineries stopped processing crude oil following Ukrainian attacks.
Tanker targeted by Houthis returned to Suez eight months later
On Feb 3, 2025, the 'Chrysalis', which had been targeted by the Houthis on July 12, 2024, made its first transit through the Suez Canal. The tanker had been attacked while it was entering the Red Sea. Later as it transited the Bab el-Mandeb, they launched drones for a second attack on the ship. The Houthis announced they would honor the Gaza cease-fire reached in January and suspended their attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea. While many of the major shipping lines have taken a wait-and-see attitude stressing their focus on security the Suez Canal Authority is anxious to restore traffic. The 'Chrysalis' was ballasting from Seka to the Sidi Kerir oil terminal in Alexandria, eight months after the Houthis had claimed to have heavily damaged the vessel due to its association with Israel. The tanker s registered in Liberia and reported to be owned by Turkish interests.
