UNARMED SPECIAL FORCES ATTACK RUSSIAN TANKER: Crisis begins, UK prime minister urgently called in!

British military forces, including marines and the Royal Air Force, intercepted a Russian tanker in international waters of the English Channel. The vessel, named 'Smyrtos,' was suspected of supporting Russia's war efforts in Ukraine. The operation, described as the first of its kind led by British forces, involved boarding the ship, conducting searches, and retaining it under surveillance off the southern coast of England while investigations continue.

Britanski marinci su danas u ranim jutarnjim časovima u kanalu Lamanš presreli i ukrcali se na tanker koji pripada ruskoj takozvanoj "floti iz senke".

Marincima su se u operaciji pridružili službenici Nacionalne agencije za borbu protiv kriminala (NCA), uz podršku Kraljevskog ratnog vazduhoplovstva (RAF).

Reč je o prvoj takvoj akciji britanskih oružanih snaga.

This morning, UK forces boarded a Russian tanker in the English Channel that was secretly helping to bankroll Putin's war in Ukraine.

Iz Ministarstva odbrane saopšteno je da će brod "Smyrtos" biti zadržan pod nadzorom uz južnu obalu Engleske dok traje istraga.

Na snimku koji je objavilo ministarstvo vide se naoružani vojnici kako se iz helikoptera spuštaju užadima na palubu, dok drugi snimci prikazuju pretres brodskih kabina i pregled dokumentacije.

Operacija je izvedena u međunarodnim vodama, više od 12 nautičkih milja od obale Velike Britanije, i bila je u potpunosti u skladu sa domaćim i međunarodnim pravom, saopštilo je ministarstvo.

Portparol je dodao da je presretanje rezultat višednevnog vojnog i političkog planiranja.

Premijer Velike Britanije Kir Starmer izjavio je danas da je jutros naredio britanskim snagama da presretnu tanker za naftu iz "flote iz senke" koji je pokušavao da prođe kroz Lamanš.

- U ranim jutarnjim satima, naredio sam našim Oružanim snagama da presretnu tanker za naftu iz 'flote iz senke' koji je pokušavao da prođe kroz Lamanš - rekao je Starmer u objavi na društvenoj mreži Iks.

Prema njegovim rečima, "ta uspešna operacija zadaje još jedan udarac Rusiji i podseća one koji podstiču Putinov rat u Ukrajini da im neće biti dozvoljeno da se sakriju".

Ukrajinski predsednik Volodimir Zelenski zahvalio je Velikoj Britaniji na "preduzimanju ovog važnog koraka protiv ruske naftne flote", prenosi Index.hr.
