The Fedor Uryupin vessel (IMO: 9443499) was built in 2010. Russia seized the vessel from Ukraine in 2014 during the annexation of Crimea but she has not been used recently.

As per Marinetraffic, the tugboat flies a Russian flag, but the official owner is the Ukrainian state-run company Chornomornaftogaz.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, in Crimea, the Russians are covering warships with support vessels against drone attacks.
