Swedish authorities are investigating the Caffa, a cargo ship suspected of transporting stolen Ukrainian grain through the Baltic Sea. The vessel, predominantly crewed by Russians and listed under Ukraine’s sanctions, was intercepted by the Swedish Coast Guard while allegedly sailing under a false Guinean flag within Sweden's territorial waters.

The Swedish Coast Guard took control of the Caffa, a suspected false-flag cargo vessel, in Swedish waters near the town of Trelleborg. The ship was on Ukraine's sanctions list, and its ownership structure remains unclear, raising suspicions about its seaworthiness and insurance status.

Swedish authorities seized the Caffa, a cargo ship sailing under a false flag in the Baltic Sea, and notified one crew member of suspected violations of maritime law and the national ship safety act due to the vessel's lack of seaworthiness.

Swedish police reported that the Caffa, a ship seized in the Baltic Sea, sailed under a false flag and was suspected of violating maritime law and the national ship safety act due to its lack of seaworthiness. One crew member was notified about the suspected breach of laws.

The Swedish coast guard boarded and took control of a suspected stateless vessel in Swedish waters of the Baltic Sea. The ship, Caffa, was sailing under a Guinean flag, but the coast guard regarded it as stateless based on national and international legislation. Authorities launched a preliminary investigation into suspected violations of maritime law regarding lack of seaworthiness.
