Ajay Pant is facing up to 10 years in prison, charged with sanction offences on an alleged Russia shadow fleet oil vessel – the first case of a ship captain being under arrest on such grounds.
This is a unique case and sets a dangerous precedent.

The ITF sends its deepest condolences to the families of those who lost their lives in the train collision near Giza, Egypt, including one of the train drivers. We wish a full recovery to the more than 100 people injured. We stand in solidarity with railway workers in Egypt.
Our Mind at Sea campaign moved to India as we joined our affiliates, Maritime Union of India, Forward Seamen's Union of India, and National Union of Seafarers of India, to reach out to aspiring young seafarers and discuss the importance of mental health and stress management.
Cabin crew, pilots and ground staff at Turkish Airways, members of Hava-is, have spent the week with ITF and ETF building capacity to make their workplace safer.
We are committed to working with Hava-is to build union density and capacity in the Turkish aviation sector.
✈️ Aviation workers must have a seat at the table as governments move towards a new South American 'single sky'.
Unions warn that moving ahead without strong safeguards could put safety standards, fair competition and workers’ rights at risk.👇

We stand in solidarity with French rail workers today as they rally in Saint-Denis. SNCF offered just a 0.18% pay increase – while posting €1bn+ profits.
Workers deserve a fair share ✊ Solidarité!
