Five days. Yeah, it looks like Finland is off the press radar at the moment. Nothing on the front page. Even in The International Situation synopsis. The magnetic mines have the everyone freaked out.

i am surprised that so many mines can be dropped by planes. arent they pretty big? how many can one plane drop?

doesnt seem too efficient, drop a 1,000 and hit one boat. but i guess its kind of a terror weapon. the threat of mines is the weapon not the mine itself.
