In this episode of Tales of Logistics — Customs Cut Series Part 4, we investigate ghost ships in the Mediterranean: flagless vessels that switch off transponders to carry smuggled fuel, weapons, drugs and people, and the challenges customs face in tracking and seizing them.

Using the case of the tanker Aristo and a look at legal loopholes, financiers and enforcement gaps, the episode reveals how silence and stealth enable illegal maritime supply chains and why stronger international cooperation is needed.
