The Russian embassy in Lebanon has insisted that it allegedly has no information about the ship, calling Ukraine's accusations "false and baseless."
The Lebanese Public Prosecution has seized the ship Laodicea docked in northern Lebanon's Tripoli Port and transferred the investigation to the Information Division, according to information obtained by Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation International (LBCI) on Saturday.
Prosecutor Ghassan Oueidat instructed police to investigate the Laodicea, which docked in Tripoli earlier this week, a judicial official said. Oueidat "ordered the seizure of the ship until the investigation is completed," the official said on condition of anonymity, according to the report.
