☆ Russia is sinking its own ships in a desperate attempt to protect a vital bridge from sea drones, Ukraine says
  + stars: | 2023-08-23 | by ( Sophia Ankel | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
Russia is sinking its own ferries to create a protective barrier in the Kerch Strait, Ukraine said. Russia is doing this to protect the Kerch Bridge from Ukrainian sea drone attacks, they added. But Stephen Wright, a drone technology developer, told Insider that the new tactic won't prove useful for Russia, at least against drone attacks. Russia has been trying to deploy all kinds of defenses amid a series of audacious Ukrainian sea drone attacks in the area, which have previously damaged large warships. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe attacks have ramped up ever since Ukraine unveiled a new sea drone that packs hundreds of pounds of explosives and is faster than anything in the Black Sea, CNN reported.

☆ Zelenskyy warned Russia that it may be left with no ships if it continues to attack Ukraine's ports
  + stars: | 2023-08-08 | by ( Mia Jankowicz | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Russia faces losing all its ships if it continues to strike Ukraine's ports, President Zelenskyy said. The attacks have killed civilians, but in recent weeks Ukraine has hit back with sea drones. Zelenskyy's comments were published days after Ukrainian exploding sea drones struck a Russian oil tanker and a Russian warship. Since then, Russia has ramped up its attacks on Ukrainian ports, killing some civilians and making one strike just a few hundred yards from the border with Romania, a NATO member. Ukraine made a similar declaration about ships traveling to Russian-controlled ports, and in the interview published Sunday, Zelenskyy vowed to respond to any attacks on Ukraine's civilian populations.

☆ Ukrainian drone carrying 450 kg of TNT slams into Russian oil tanker day after Russian warship was attacked
  + stars: | 2023-08-05 | by ( Charles R. Davis | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
A Ukrainian maritime drone struck a Russian oil tanker on Saturday. It came a day after another naval drone attack on a Russian warship. The strike came after another drone strike on Friday badly damaged a Russian warship in the Russian port city of Novorossiysk. A Russian official also claimed Saturday that a Ukrainian drone was spotted and subsequently destroyed in the waters outside Sevastopol, the Crimean port city home to Russia's Black Sea Fleet. He noted that Ukraine was likely using a recently unveiled model of naval drone that Ukraine claims can strike targets 500 miles away.

☆ Russian oil and grain exports halted after Ukraine drone strike near Black Sea port
  + stars: | 2023-08-04 | by ( Filip De Mott | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
Ukraine launched a sea drone strike on a Russian naval ship near the port of Novorossiysk. The port of Novorossiysk is home to a Russian navy base and exports about 600,000 barrels of oil a day. After the drone attack, wheat futures jumped as much as 3.5% Friday morning, while Brent crude futures rose 0.6%. The attack was preceded by a number of Russian assaults on Kyiv's grain export infrastructure these past weeks, such as Wednesday drone strike on Ukraine's primary inland port on the Danube River. Meanwhile, Ukraine's drone strike adds a new threat to Russia's commodity outflows, which are already limited Western sanctions and price caps.

☆ Russia claimed to have defeated a Ukrainian sea drone attack, only to be instantly humiliated by a video showing it didn't

Russia said Friday that it thwarted a Ukrainian sea drone attack on one of its warships. But videos released shortly after by Ukrainian officials proved otherwise. One video shows a sea drone smashing into the side of the warship, partially damaging it. Another Ukrainian told CNN on Friday that the attack was carried out by a drone with around 450 kilograms of TNT. Ukrainian officials have not commented on the attack, which is in keeping with their security policy.

☆ Ukraine just proved its sea drones are a huge threat to Russia's navy. An expert says this may only be the start.

Ukraine attacked a Russian warship using a sea drone on Friday, according to videos. It's unknown what type of sea drone Ukraine used to attack the Russian ship. Last week, Ukraine showed off its new sea drone for the first time, which packs hundreds of pounds of explosives, CNN reported. "These are faster than anything else in the Black Sea," he told CNN. A Ukranian sea drone was also used last month to successfully damage the Kerch Bridge, according to CNN.

☆ Russia's outdated boom defenses will prove useless if Ukraine counters with a double-drone strike, expert says
  + stars: | 2023-08-02 | by ( Sophia Ankel | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
In response, Russia has put up boom defenses to protect bridges or ships. But Ukraine can easily overcome those by launching a double-drone strike, an expert told Insider. However, the outdated defenses, which have been around since World War II, will prove useless if Ukraine decides to counter with a double-drone strike, Stephen Wright, a drone technology developer told Insider. The defenses were deployed after Ukraine unveiled a new sea drone that is designed to attack ships in Russia's Black Sea fleet. Wright told Insider that Ukraine can easily counter the boom defenses by launching a formation attack.

☆ British Man Died of Rare Blood Syndrome Linked to AstraZeneca’s Vaccine
  + stars: | 2023-04-20 | by ( Michael Levenson | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
A 32-year-old psychologist in Britain developed blood clots and died 10 days after he took his first dose of AstraZeneca’s Covid vaccine, a report released by a London coroner on Wednesday found, in a highly rare case of a fatal reaction to the vaccine. The inquest, which was requested by Charlotte Wright, the widow of Dr. Stephen Wright, found that he died on Jan. 26, 2021, as a result of “unintended consequences of vaccination.” Ms. Wright is suing AstraZeneca. According to the report, Dr. Wright, of Kent, England, had a stroke and bleeding in the brain, as well as vaccine-induced thrombosis, or blood clots, and thrombocytopenia, a condition that occurs when the platelet level in the blood is abnormally low. Since 2021, researchers have cited rare cases in which people have developed the blood-clotting syndrome known as TTS after receiving the Johnson & Johnson or AstraZeneca Covid vaccines, which are similar. The cases typically occur within weeks of vaccination.
