Maltese-flagged Ruby is carrying 20,000 tonnes of ammonium nitrate – seven times the amount that caused 2020 Beirut port blast

Ship packed with explosive Russian fertiliser floating off Kent

A cargo ship with links to Russia packed with explosive fertiliser is floating off the Kent coast after being denied entry at other ports over safety fears.

Ruby, a Maltese-flagged cargo ship carrying 20,000 tonnes of ammonium nitrate fertiliser from a port in Russia, was ordered out of Tromso in Norway and turned away from Danish waters.

More alleged shenanigans with this craft drifting around the North Sea, ostensibly enroute to the Canaries.
