A Russian Investigation Committee inspects the Greenpeace International ship, Arctic Sunrise. They bring sniffer dogs and data experts with them. Captain Peter Willcox is (while still under detention) present during the inspection. The Arctic Sunrise is held in a closed part of Murmansk port and Greenpeace have at no point been given access to the ship.

The Arctic 30 (28 Greenpeace International activists and a freelance photographer and a freelance videographer) are currently detained by Russian authorities since they were arrested during a peaceful protest against oil drilling in the Arctic. They have been refused bail and are still charged with both piracy and hooliganism.
