Story was reported in local Russian sources but some are now being taken down. Story may be being suppressed in #RussiaIsLosing

#OSINT unconfirmed but credible

Actually the #RussiaIsLosing was an auto-fill error. Just meant Russia, try not to be prejudicial. Maybe true though?
Confirmed

***UPDATE***

There is still a massive fog of war surrounding the #Ukraine️ attack on #Russian forces at Sevastopol. All UNCONFIRMED

3 parts to reports:

1. Reports in Russian media /SM that some Russian navy ships damaged. Reportedly including frigate Admiral Makarov #OSINT Frigate Admiral Makarov
2. There are images of fires on one of the headlands outside the main harbor. Still burning now

Hot take: drone (UAV) attacks on something on land
3. Videos and images of explosion at sea this morning, variously reported as a Russian helicopter destroying a Ukrainian underwater drone. Like other info treat as UNCONFIRMED, and I have slight doubts what we are seeing

A Russian Navy submarine was also in the general area

*** NORD STREAM 2 incident ***

/Thread

I am getting a lot of questions re #Russian underwater sabotage capabilities due to the leak on the #NordStream2 pipeline off Denmark.

I do not have time to respond to media right now (sorry)

So just lay out some background reference. oil slick NordStream 2. Pho...
1. Circumstances
The leak is near the Danish island of Bornholm, at 54.8762°, 15.4099° in ~70 meters of water. This would be divable

2 things do make it suspicious:
a) It is just over 12 nautical miles from the Island in International waters
b) the EEZ here is disputed here (?) Image
2. History
In the past the USSR based spy submarines with special 'seabed engineering' capabilities in the Baltic. These are implicated in some of the famous 'Swedish incursions' of the late Cold War

See hisutton.com/Seliger.html

This force is no longer based in the Baltic Image

This guy is a genius. He plans to be sent home for having insufficient coordination to even feed a cannon

Hey @Indiasgrowing, why are you using my illustrations without permission?

...and then threatening others with copyright?
Separately. I would be very surprised if Type-212CD was even in the running
For a serious article (with that illustration) navalnews.com/naval-news/202…

Well, since posting this, they have done a U-turn.

Both the tanker and RN shadow, and by implication the Russian warships, currently heading back.

However, this is a fluid situation

Maybe the PR guys called up the Navy? Image
And back again... Image
