An oil tanker that travelled from Russia and was scheduled to dock in Derry arrived at Foyle Port on Wednesday night.
The oil tanker, Pluto, recently left the oil loading port of Primorsk in Russia and arrived into Derry at around 8pm on March 2 - according to VesselFinder.
A new UK law, passed on Tuesday, banned all ships that have any connection to Russia from entering its ports in response to Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.

The law applied to all ships that are Russian owned, operated, controlled, chartered, registered or flagged.
The ship carried cargo from Primorsk, Russia but flies under the flag of the Marshall Islands, where it is registered.
The cargo vessel previously docked at the Welsh port of Milford Haven on February 26, before the ban was imposed.
Foyle Port told MyDerry that they were currently "operating to the parameters of the sanctions set out."
In a statement, the spokesperson said: “Foyle Port is currently operating to the parameters of the sanctions set out by the Department for Transport in London."
"It has been highlighted to the department by the Port that the commodity on a ship is beyond the set sanctions.
"The vessel is not Russian owned, registered or managed.”
Foyle Port specialises in turn-key cargo handling packages, including craneage, stevedoring, transport, weighbridge, storage and shed management.
