The UK has purchased at least 39 shipments of Russian oil, worth about £200 million ($236 million) since February, although the cargoes were registered as imports from other countries, the Sunday Times reports.
Companies are using a loophole that allows them to register Russian fuel as being from elsewhere after ship-to-ship transfers. The news outlet was able to track dozens of shipments of Russian oil that have arrived to UK ports since March, logged as originating in Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, France and other countries.
