In a recent incident highlighting tensions in the region, the 'Svyatoy Georgiy' was apprehended by border patrol units from the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) due to reported suspicious maneuvers off the coast of Crimea. The FSB has accused the vessel of breaching the Russian Federation's state border regime. Reports indicate that the ship deviated from its designated route and dropped anchor near Chernomorkoye, a village located on the northwest coast of the Crimean peninsula, without obtaining the necessary authorization. As a result, the captain faces administrative charges related to border violations, while the vessel's owner may incur a fine for these infractions. The 'Svyatoy Georgiy' was en route from Rostov-on-Don to Varna, and as of January 6, 2016, its AIS tracking showed the ship approaching the port of Galati.
