Russian warship opened fire on a Norwegian fishing boat in a sinister Arctic incident triggering alarm over the threat of a full-scale war between Russia and the West.
The ugly flashpoint in the Barents Sea on September 12 has only been revealed now, almost two weeks later. It coincides with a Japanese fighter jet firing flares at a Russian plane after an alleged violation of Tokyo's airspace.
Øystein Orten and his twin brother Torstein were on the 49ft MS Ragnhild Kristine during the chilling confrontation with the Russian anti submarine destroyer Admiral Levchenko, one of the largest vessels in Vladimir Putin's Northern Fleet.

So... any bets on whether this was a Norwegian Fishing Boat, or a ‘Norwegian Fishing Boat’ fishing for something besides fish?
And apparently it was not “Fired On”; Rather a warning shot was fired nearby.

Yes, but this was a destroyer.

Shipbuilder chief in Russia asked what to build and Putin said “Oh, frigate.” He scheduled them.

This is the type of cheap trick that the Chinese do every year. Trying to intimidate various people crossing international waters the ChiComs are trying to steal.
Did Russia pick up the idea?
The weakness of Biden and the prospect of Harris are building the enemies’ confidence up really high now. Iran also feeling bold and strong, and well funded.
Thank a Dem today. /S

“Yes, but this was a destroyer.”
And some of those Fokkers were Messerschmitts.

Given what we know of the Russian navy they need to be careful or one of these days the Norwegians will fire a few salmon back and the Russians will be down one destroyer.

Different fleet. Neither the Northern nor the Pacific fleets are involved in the UKR war Russia began.
