Based on the article, I get the impression that the Russians were operating in the area but not attacked by the Swedes. The military response appears to be search and rescue. Am I mistaken?

Yes. The search has been going on for two days but this evening the swedish government informed the public that it was a search and rescue mission. A message sent from a submarine deep into the swedish archipelago.

Swedes and Russians are tight buddies.

They’re both total socialists.

The Swedes have been putting out anti sub mines in their waters. They sit on the bottom. If a Swedish or NATO sub comes along they ping it with the code and nothing happens if you don’t have the code it activates and comes after you.
