Russian crew aboard Putin's suspected superyacht have abandoned their jobs on the $700 million boat [View all]

The Russian crew aboard a $700 million yacht named Scheherazade with potential links to President Putin have abandoned their jobs aboard the ship, as first reported by The New York Times.

Allegedly, due to obligations and personal conflicts related to the ongoing Russian war, all employees vacated their posts. Following the departure of all the Russian crew members, a British crew has stepped in instead.

The ship's captain, Guy, who is also British, previously denied to The New York Times that the Scheherazade was owned by Putin and alleged that the Russian president had never been aboard the ship.

The ship has not been legally seized by Italian or European Union authorities but is under scrutiny. Officials will not make further comments until the conclusion of an investigation by the Italian authorities, according to The New York Times.
