More than 2 million barrels of crude oil on Adrian Darya sold to unknown buyer who will decide vessel's destination.

From the marine tracker site you can see that the ship has not changed direction or speed and has been traveling at less than half speed of about 8 knots since it left Gibraltar.

The " background "story may have changed but not the direction.

for Iran its the oil that is important so selling it to a unknown buyer was the big goal and i remember the ship went dark for more than 12 hours before its got online again.

its strange, word on the street is it waiting for some other cargo ship why he dose not come back to Iran its big Q for me if im going to go at it the hard way i would say it has some weapons on board that needs to get to Syria as he is free with no reason to stay there anymore.

Seems to be going in circles now. I checked again today. It passed Cyprus and was heading in the direction of Egypt but than did another 180 degrees turn.

If it proceeds towards the southwest, it may enter the Turkish Notam area. :) There will be a few hours to Syria which is lots of russian frigates around there.
