Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise leaves Russia
- 10 years ago
The Greenpeace ship seized by Russia last September amid a protest by the group against Arctic oil drilling has finally left the country.
Known as the ‘Arctic 30’, some 30 people on board the Arctic Sunrise were detained and later released, following an international outcry.
The vessel was handed back to Greenpeace in June but needed repairs before being able to leave Murmansk.
