Spanish media reporting that the Ursa Major has sunk after an explosion in the engine room earlier today, which caused a list. 14 out of 16 crew members were rescued with 2 still missing.

1957: Cranes are Flying.
2024: Cranes are Diving.
I am surprised they managed to reach Spain. Let me guess: another NATO country that has to rescue the russians?
I hope a drone hit it before it sank.
If this were soviet days, I’d suspect the CIA. Nowadays, it’s too much of a stretch to venture beyond “complete incompetence and corruption.”
👏👏👏👏👏👏
While it’s probably 40 years past it’s life expectancy or since it’s had proper maintenance, if used sparingly, it could have been available to help the country recover. Out of desperation, Putin will have fewer resources to recover.
I’m wounded
It’s the new submarine tech from russia. Nothing to see here. Move along.
Is this the same ship reported to have broken down while fleeing Syria?
Now hook up the Carrier Kuznetsov to its personal tugboat Chicker so it can get towed out there to help. This way, it will also likely sink and finally be put it out of its misery. No crew will be present on the carrier though. Not to worry, they didn’t avoid oblivion as they were all used to replace losses and have all likely been turned into sunflower fertilizer on the front lines in Ukraine. 🤣🤣🤣
Sounds good to me.
Jesus, I was just reading a twitter thread about how this ship broke down, with the comments “I hope a drone doesn’t hit it”. Then I open reddit and see that it already sunk lol.
Haha frickin’ Ukrainian propaganda.
It didn’t *sink*, it *submerged*, tovarich.
In mother Russia, *all* military ships submersible. Especially in Black Sea.
Thoughts and prayers
