@bessarabov Cool! I suspect that the ship (or ships) will fly the flag of some country and therefore in principle should be subject to its laws, according to the legal doctrine of the open high seas. If that is the case this will counts towards resolution for the country they fly the flag of (if it's one of those listed here). E.g. if they fly the Turkish flag this will count as "Russia, India, Iran, Turkey, GGC countries, or Israel"
