"The EU directive on the ban for Russians has come into force. It applies to all ships registered under the Russian flag, as well as those that changed the registration of the Russian Federation after February 24," Yermak wrote.
However, there are certain exceptions - the decision will not apply to those ships that have sent a Mayday signal. Then they will be taken individually.
