Has anyone identified them yet?
Sources (BBC, Pravda, Euroradio) indicate that several airlines are involved, increasing routes to meet an anticipated demand of tourists at discount rates to Minsk. Those involved (but not limited to):

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ถ Iraqi Airways
๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡พ Belavia
๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ทTurkish Airlines
๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Cham Wings Airlines
So here is what gets REALLY interesting.

The head of foreign economic activity for Minsk airport indicates that service routes are in the works to open for Kenya, Vietnam, Algeria, Iran, Morocco, Moldova, Qatar, Ethiopia as of early November.

On the evening of November 19 2021, RCH8194, C-17A 08-8194, lifted from Fort Campbell. It was 6:40PM (2340Z). It probably didn't make much difference to anyone in the area. These are common flights. Common enough for flight trackers who watch for this stuff to sometimes miss.

Within a couple hours, it should have become a little more obvious.

Another C-17A, 00-0184 #AE08BE, was lifting from Fort Campbell around 7PM local, 0000Z, with RCH5E1, C-17A 04-4138 #AE1448, descending for Campbell's Army Airfield.

Something was beginning to move.

Not much further away to the east at roughly the same time, RCH889, C-17A 06-6157 #AE145B, was lifting out of Fort Bragg/Pope AAF, NC.

At this moment, all aircraft involved had used in part or in whole Mode S to at least partially obfuscate their departures.

Something I noticed earlier... the 2 leading Taiwanese Radarbox stations are virtually unusable today.

Probably just a coincidence.

The last open-source info I can find is that USS Connecticut was in Japan in August. Not much to go on for a position. Somewhere in the western Pacific.

Given the timing (October 2nd, Saturday) and location, I am now deeply interested in knowing what that "object" was.
Military Times now reporting there are several injuries but none are life-threatening.

Further, "the areaโ€™s topography at the time did not indicate there was a land mass in front of the boat", according to one anonymous source.
