🇳🇿 LESBIAN CAPTAIN LOSES SHIP!

The Royal NZ Navy ship’s HMNZS Manawanui sank this morning after running aground on a reef near the southern coast of Upolu, Samoa, last night and catching fire.

$100 million down the drain

All 75 crew and passengers onboard were safely rescued overnight. Two people needed hospital treatment for minor injuries, one with a dislocated shoulder and another with a hurt back.

"Rescuers battled currents and winds that were pushing the life rafts and sea boats toward the reefs, and swells made the rescue effort particularly challenging.

Those on board the lifeboats and sea boats were transferred to vessels that responded to the rescue call and were transported ashore."

2/
The Defence Force said "the exact cause of the grounding is unknown and this will need further investigation".

Defence Minister Judith Collins told media in Auckland there will be a Court of Inquiry launched to establish why the ship ran aground, caught fire and then capsized.

—> How about diversity and inclusion as hiring policy? Check the lesbian captain.

The $100m vessel was on fire and listing heavily, after running aground before 7pm last night. Footage from the scene showed smoke billowing from the stranded ship.

The ship ran aground near the southern coast of Upolu, with all on board evacuating to "life rafts and sea boats", according to the Defence Force.

HMNZS Manawanui purchased for over $100m in 2018

The HMNZS Manawanui was purchased for $103 million by the Defence Ministry in 2018.

Then-defence minister Ron Mark said in a press release at the time the ship would “fill an existing capability gap” created when two vessels were decommissioned – the survey ship HMNZS Resolution in 2012 and dive tender HMNZS Manawanui in 2018.

The earthquake originated on the Thai-Myanmar border was felt as far as Bangkok.

Much damage and building collapses!

1/
The high rise building was under construction.

Due to the collapse 43 workers are allegedly trapped, the amount of casualties and deaths unclear.

2/
The 7.7 strength earthquake lasted in Bangkok for 3 minutes.

Its epicenter was Mandalay, Myanmar, over 1200 kms away. That’s crazy.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russia introduces mobile anti-drone teams!

The special forces unit "Nomad" is armed with pickups with increased cross-country ability, which are equipped with machine guns and night sights, but also with a laser system for combating UAVs, apparently mounted on a GAZ Sadko Next C42A43 truck.

Ukraine is using mobile groups fairly effectively.

As long as you know where the drones are and more or less where they fly to, you can send these pickups to intercept the drones.

The dudes drive there and shoot the drones down.

Russia’s introduction of such groups, implies their effectiveness.

2/
Looks like one of the vehicles is equipped with a radar.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 The Ukrainian Army blew up the gas measuring station "Sudzha".

Technically that is energy infrastructure and is under the ceasefire agreement, practically this is pipe infrastructure was used for assaulting by Russian soldiers.

So, Ukraine broke the ceasefire? Are they afraid Russian soldiers would go to Ukraine via pipeline?

1/
The gas compression station is right on the Russia-Ukraine border.

Probably they blew up before retreating. They can’t hold this territory any longer and therefore they destroy everything they can on their way.

2/ Image
The Sudzha gas metering station is part of the largest transit corridor for Russian gas supplies to Europe, which is a gas pipeline with a diameter of 1,420 millimeters.
