I’m not a military tactician but it seems to me that a missile to sink that ship is in order. No more spy ship. The only thing Russia understands is force.
“This is a vessel designed for gathering intelligence and mapping our undersea cables. We deployed a Royal Navy frigate and RAF P-8 planes to monitor and track this vessel’s every move, during which the Yantar directed lasers at our pilots.”

Turkey shot down a russian fighter jet in 2015 after it encroached on their airspace and it didnt start ww3, maybe its time the rest of us start showing appropriate responses to these hostile acts.

What is the only thing a bully understands? A punch straight in the mouth.

Putin really REALLY wants a NATO country to retaliate. That way he can package his failures in Ukraine as failures facing NATO.

Play their dirty game: shoot it down, claim you didn’t shot it down

They’re begging for a full on embargo of the Russian shadow fleet so Putin can claim they’re at war with NATO.

I’m happy to see so many tough armchair military personnel in the comment section ready to sign up to the front lines. I wonder whats stopping them from going right now.

Not Russian you say? lets sink it.

„fires lasers“ in title here, doesnt fully jive with the article. It says „directed lasers“.
Which sounds more like „pointed lasers“ …
It’s clear they are testing European reaction and provoking, and it’s very serious. But we should be accurate with our words. Correct me if wrong. Thx.

Maybe this time NATO will do something? Something? Anything?
Nothing? Well Russia might as well continue.

We will just talk them to death as usual just like we do too all major situations…. Talk…. Vote…. Talk some more….. Vote….. Rinse and repeat.

We need fighters in position of power not cowards, Putin has stretched this far too long because no one wants to kick the bully in the balls.

There is no such a thing as international water, international rights or borders.
Rights only exists with oversight of a institution above the other entities.
So without enforcement of peers or interested parties there is no law to be followed.
I this same way some European countries still keep colonies and territories in Africa and South America. As African and South Americans countries are not yet able to enforce sovereignty.

Acts of war are apoarently lesser punished than civilian disobedience
