2 #Russian Navy warships operating off Danish island in Baltic yesterday

Matches broadly with claimed Russian Navy violated Danish territorial waters earlier that day.

Denmark has supplied Harpoon to #Ukraine and was hosting a democracy festival on the island Russian Navy ships near Den...
Ref:
"A Russian military vessel has twice last night violated Danish territorial waters A deeply irresponsible, gross and completely unacceptable Russian provocation in the middle of #fmdk

Bullying methods do not work against Denmark ...
Should add, "Possible Maritime Patrol Aircraft" may be a fighter. Looks fast and relatively small, but hard to tell in this imagery.

***UPDATE***

Credible reports that the #Russian navy project 22870 Rescue Tug Spasatel Vasily Bekh (SB-739) has been hit and sunk by #Ukrainian navy missiles.

Short thread on why this is important, aside from obvious morale boost for UKR side
Despite the seemingly pedestrian label, ‘Rescue Tugs’, are valid military targets and can be important.

They are utility ships and in the context of Snake Island, are used for critical resupply. In many respects they are a higher value target than the warships
Snake island is strategically important. It’s not just a rock, it’s territory. And it is strategically located. Not just militarily, but economically. File satellite image of snake island after an attack earlier

***BREAKING***

#China has launched the Type-033 aircraft carrier, named Fujian.

This is the first Aircraft Carrier which really rivals the U.S. Navy’s in terms of size.

*of interest*

2 suspected #Chinese powerboats, similar to super ‘go-fasts’ used by drug smugglers in Spain, seen 0950-1100 May 19 lurking at Nan'aokou, Taiwan. The crew on the boat are wearing hoods, no fishing behavior. Might be maritime militia? Might be smugglers #OSINT ImageImageImageImage

My first thought is car smuggling, which used to be a thing in #China. But is it still relevant?

***UPDATE***

The #Russian Navy landing ships which have been concentrated at Novorossiysk on the Black Sea, are out of port today.

#OSINT Russian Navy in Black Sea
Contrast with this satellite image of the same port recently navalnews.com/naval-news/202…
Same picture with Sentinel 1 radar (SAR) imagery.. compare May 11 and 15.

Note. These ships have come and gone together before. Them leaving is interesting OSINT, but interpretation needs more sources
