nov 20, 2013 - AN cargo arrives Beirut

Description:

"The Rhosus arrived in Beirut in November but never left, becoming tangled in a legal dispute over unpaid port fees and ship defects. Creditors accused the ship’s legal owner, listed as a Panama-based firm, of abandoning the vessel and the cargo was later unloaded and put in a dockside warehouse, according to official accounts." (Reuters)

OCCRP story suggests the Beirut was the intended destination of the AN cargo all along (i.e. that FEM was a false end-user)
