Russian Cargo Ship Ursa Major Sinks in the Mediterranean | Fifth Russian Commercial Vessel Lost
This is a much more detailed look at the sinking of the Ursa Major, including how the vessel sunk and what it was doing at the time of the sinking.
An explosion in the engine room apparently, and she sunk stern first, indicating there was a lot of water coming into that area of the ship.
Looks like the Ursa Major went for a Big Dipper :>
You win the internet for today.
Current photo of the Ursa major, now promoted to Russian submarine.
Dang.
Maybe withdraw from Ukraine and this stops happening, you dig?
Okay this must be sabotage or something? Pretty big coincidence to have so many so quickly.
I think the first 2 at least were very unlikely to be sabotage. They were reconstructed, and the welding from that was not strong enough for the task.
Of course sabotage is a possibility, but Russia is driving everything beyond their limits. Even workers are demanded to work insane hours where shortage is worst.
Russia is destroying itself from the inside. If they get a little help from Ukrainian sabotage, it only means it will go a bit faster.
But Russian infrastructure is collapsing because it's poorly maintained and pushed beyond limits.
Whoopsie-doodle.
What's the water version of 🌻?
We should be thanking for the Russians for all the new constructed coral reefs they've been creating.
I heard in Russian news that this is all according to plan, they are trying to recover the lost sub.
