South Korea says it will pursue legal action if investigations find that fuel shipments from its ports to Russia violated domestic law. Reports say more than 176,000 tons of fuel, mostly diesel, was loaded onto seven tankers at several South Korean ports. Officials are examining whether the exports breached sanctions or trade rules amid the war in Ukraine.

Why now: The scale of the shipments and their possible breach of export controls on Russia have drawn attention.
