Russian diesel tankers reportedly change course as US officials warn against fuel shipments

Several tankers carrying Russian diesel to the United States are reported to have changed course, one toward Brazil and another into the Mediterranean, according to marine tracking data, as New Jersey’s governor warned operators to turn away ships carrying the fuel and a Connecticut senator warned shipping companies against violating sanctions, despite temporary US authorization of Russian diesel transactions.
