#Gamma radiation in #Khmelnytsky could actually indicate that a #DirtyBomb was stored in the warehouses.
Gamma radiation is characteristic of #enriched #uranium. Is it possible that were making "dirty bombs" at the Khmelnitsky #NPP

The Swedish silent service is on quite a visible PR-campaign in Finnish media. First we had a surprisingly long article dealing with a well-publicised exercise from last spring when the Swedish submarine #HMSUppland visited the waters around #Hanko. iltalehti.fi/politiikka/a/2…
Some nice pictures from the event. The Finnish #Navy is getting more serious about hunting submarines following the #Hamina-class MLU, and getting a suitable 'target' to train on is key.
Then we got articles in both Swedish and Finnish from a visit by Finnish media to the yard currently building leadship #HMSBlekinge of the #A26-class. No denying @SaabFi likely has other thoughts than just showing off their shipyard in arranging this 😉 svenska.yle.fi/a/7-10027816

This is my initial thread which provides evidence in support of Hersh's claims re the Nordstream pipeline.

1. Now I will explore some of the claims and counterclaims regarding certain details in his article.
2. On amount of explosives needed to cut pipeline

70 kg

This is necessary to assess the feasibility, manpower and platform used for diving and placing the charges

3. More OSINT research into the pipeline and the charges and possible platforms used

Die #Ostsee/#balticsea nach dem #Nato #Beitritt von #Schweden und #Finnland. Was verändert sich und was hat das für Auswirkungen. Nach der Nato Osterweiterungen sah die Lage in der Ostsee wie folgt aus
Blau: Nato Überlegenheit
Rot: RUS Überlegenheit
Grün: Neutral
1/x
Orange: umkämpfter Bereich
Schwarz: Grenze Nato RUS/Belarus
Weiß: Bornholm als wichtiger Nato Vorposten
Lila: RUS Stützpunkte der Nordflotte

Mit dem Beitritt ändert sich die Lage drastisch.
Die Ostsee liegt größtenteils unter Nato Überlegenheit und die Versorgungslinie 2/x
Der Nordflotte ist nicht mehr durch das neutrale Finnland geschützt, sondern wird bedroht.
Bornholm ist nur noch eine von vielen Inseln. Kaliningrad ist zu einer Enklave ohne maritime Verbindung zum Rest geworden. Bisherige mögliche Kriegspläne sind obsolet geworden. 3/x

NEW: @NATO SecGen @jensstoltenberg slams #Russia's annexation of additional regions of #Ukraine "in total violation of int'l law"

"This land grab is illegal & illegitimate" he says "These lands are Ukraine...just like #Crimea is Ukraine" Image
#Russia's annexation "does not change the nature of the conflict ... it does not change our commitment to support Ukraine" per @NATO's @jensstoltenberg

But he adds, "NATO is not party to conflict"
"This is a pivotal moment...the most serious escalation since the start of the war" per @NATO's @jensstoltenberg on #Russia's latest annexation of #Ukraine territory

"None of this shows strength" he adds "It shows weakness"

Good Morning. A follow-up #thread on the (admittedly) overwhelming response on my first one yesterday regarding the #NordstreamLeaks in the #BalticSea

#Nordstream1 #NordStream2 #Sabotage #seabed #Pipeline
It was suggested correctly, as by @AlexvB___, that there is also the possiblity to move *within* the pipelines. But how to do that? Let´s take a (bit technical) look 🔎:
The >1200km length (each!) of the pipelines have to be serviced and cleaned, too. For that, pipelines as #Nordstream use a special device, the Pipeline inspection Gauge - in German called #Molch

Ohhoh. Biden helmikuussa, #Nordstream2 lausunto:
- Jos Venäjä hyökkää Ukrainan rajan yli, Nordstream2:ta ei enää ole
- Kuinka tarkalleen ottaen teette sen?
- Uskokaa vain, meillä on keinomme.
Lähde varmistettu, ylläolevan tosiaan Biden sanoi 7.2.2022. Ja saman sanoi USA:n hallinto jo 11 pv aiemmin, vain hieman varovaisemmin sanamuodoin: #Nordstream

"Our imagination does´nt has any scenario left in which this could not be a targeted attack" @Tagesspiegel quotes a person involved in the assessment of the German gov regarding the incidents at the #Nordstream #pipelines in the #Balticsea

A first thread ⚠️ #Druckabfall
Yesterday, authorities acknowledged a decrease in pressure in both pipelines; first in NS2, later also in NS1. The 3(!) leakages are to be found in the East of Danish Bornholm (NS2), and also two leaks in the Northeast of the Island (NS1)
Two leaks are within the Danish Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), one is in the Swedish EEZ. Sea depth in the region is around 50m.

Die #Ostsee (#balticsea) und die Auswirkung des #Nato #Beitritt von #Schweden und #Finnland.
Um die Bedeutung, vor allem der Marine zu verstehen geht es im 2.Teil der Serie um die Grundlagen der Aufgaben der #Marine.
Die Marine ist wesentlich mehr als ein paar graue Schiffe, 1/x
sondern ein Wirkverbund aus Land-, See- und Lufteinheiten!

Neben Sensoren und Effektoren ist Führung elementar.
Sensoren dienen der Aufklärung und Zielerfassung/-zuweisung.
Effektoren sind die Waffen (Geschütze, Raketen etc)
Führung ist das, 2/x Bild von weaponsandwarfare.com Image
Was alles verbindet und koordiniert. Es gibt sogar Schiffe die nur zur Führung von großen Verbänden da sind. Diese werden teilweise sogar noch von weiteren Schiffen unterstützt welche eine Warfare Area (Kampfbereich) wie z.B. Flugabwehr leiten.3/x de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-Ridg…

Die #Ostsee (englisch: #BalticSea) hat als Meer, aus Sicht des Militärs, ganz andere und spezielle Eigenschaften als z.B. die Nordsee oder der Atlantik.
Hier geht es um die geographisch relevanten Eigenschaften der Ostsee, welche ich grob eingeteilt darstelle. 1/x
Dieses dient der Verdeutlichung der verschiedenen Bereiche und ist geographisch teilweise inkorrekt.
Die Ostsee ist insgesamt ein sehr flaches Meer mit einer maximalen Wassertiefe von ca. 450 Metern und einer durchschnittlichen Tiefe von ca. 50 Meter.
2/x
Es gibt viele Flachwasserbereiche und der Salzgehalt ist in großen Teilen sehr niedrig, teilweise aber mit abrupten Änderungen.
Die Ostsee ist in 4 Bereiche zu unterteilen:
1. #Kattegat (lila)
2. Zentrale Ostsee (grün)
3. Bottnischer Meerbusen (orange)

#Germany #BalticSea #Bomb #WorldWar2

In an air raid on the warship "Lützow" in 1942, a 5400-kilo aerial bomb "Tallboy" remained lying on the bottom of the Baltic Sea as a dud. After a year of planning, a team of experts is now working on the highly complicated mitigation.
It is one of the largest missions in Europe.

The #sanctions against the #BalticSea pipeline decided by the #US #Senate meet with resistance in #Moscow, criticism also came from #German Chancellor #Merkel. The #Kremlin still expects #NordStream2 to be completed.
Meanwhile, #Russia accuses the #UnitedStates of violating the law with pipeline sanctions.The punitive measures #violate international law and are an example of unfair competition, said Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskow. "Such actions do not please Moscow or the #European capitals;
they do not like #Berlin or #Paris," said Peskow. He accused the #US of violating #international law and "expanding its artificial dominance to the #European market". Chancellor Angela #Merkel has also criticized the #US Congress's sanction resolution.
