Seapeak are the operators for this ship.
The fact that a British club Insures the P&I coverage isnt really something out of the ordinary in the Trade. Anyone who knows the P&I club market will tell you that the British have always dominated the area, since the 1800's in fact, and you merely need to know alot of the parties to verify this fact, North (now NorthStandard), UKP&I, Britannia, West of England P&I etc etc. Now a ship without P&I is untradeable, regardless of where and the flag etc and if an existing policy exists I do not believe that cover can be cancelled basis sanctions. It can be limited to encompass same, but not cancelled

SourceFor those like myself who have seen the videos on X where Ukrainian drones drop grenades on Russian soldiers or fly into them and detonate, what are your thoughts?
I'm drawn to watch them yet at the same time I'm a bit repulsed by them. There's something that doesn't sit right with me when seeing a soldier being tormented, with them knowing a grenade is about to drop on them or an explosive drone is going to fly into them and explode. Often they aren't killed but horrifically injured, with limbs blown off and they roll around on the ground in agony. In one video I saw this happen and then another soldier goes over to them to try and give first aid, and they get a grenade dropped on them too.
I watch them, yet it disturbs me and I'm not sure why. I accept that soldiers get injured and killed in battle, but this just seems like torture, especially when the solder is trying to run away yet the drone follows and torments them before the inevitable. Killing a soldier that's giving first aid to another doesn't seem right, yet I realise this is the face of war.

No thoughts on the rights and wrongs, but seeing soldiers, people, trying to outrun their inevitable fate reminded me of the soldiers in WW1 (?) when machine guns and mechanised weapons were brought in. It seems like that kind of step change, and infantry having little protection. Also killing at a distance, similarly, but much farther than a machine gun etc.I'm drawn to watch them yet at the same time I'm a bit repulsed by them.
