Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many Russian-owned vessels have been seized at ports and airfields since sanctions have been introduced in response to the invasion of Ukraine.

We are actively working with departments and agencies across Government to identify all aircraft and vessels, including leisure craft, that fall within the scope of the sanctions Regulations. To date, three aircraft have been detained, and two remain under a restriction of flying order pending investigation. At least 28 ships have been frustrated by the maritime sanctions, and one superyacht has been detained.
