This is the Thai-flagged ship from today. Looks to be exactly what @covertshores.bsky.social predicted.

Until the bungs to politicians stop from fossil fuel companies this simply will not happen. Those in power are not in power for any other reason than to enrich themselves and retain power.

"given every chance" it remarkably takes 6 years to get a turbine in the water in this deranged backward little island. For comparison its 18 months in Canada.

Yeap. The torpedo-shaped mines that lie waiting on the bottom are a massive concern, but its mostly these

NATO, who are not taking part in the Iranian conflict because its deranged, reckon the biggest terrorist groups in middle east are al-Qaeda, ISIS and Tahrir al-Sham. You should email them.

Isn't most terrorism in the middle east done by sunnis, the same ones that you are proposing the Israelis are going to go into an alliance with?

Tidal, tidal, tidal and more tidal. Successive Labour and Tory govts have strangled it in the crib. Easy to maintain, plenty jobs. We should build arrays in the North Sea that are the envy of the world, and license the tech out to everywhere else. 50% of globe live within 100 miles of a coast.

The England & Wales version is the best in Uk. Scottish ones are painfully middle-class.

Can see the point with this specific incident, but there will quickly come a point when these temporary bans are just getting slapped on to anything and everything.

Also, while its not important, the messaging is deceptive as drones under 249g do not fall under the regulations they are citing.

Not amused about this. Flying a drone right beside the incident is obviously moronic and this incident has likely caused people to travel solely to film the building but, as evidenced in places like Minnesota, the police want to see the end of any drones in any civilian areas...... except their own.

Ok kids! Now you fucking know why they invented the term "Middle East" in the early 1900s to refer specifically to the region around the maritime chokepoints of the Bab al-Mandab and Strait of Hormuz

for my sins I have access to google's fancy "producer" music thing and will try this for you with the dance of the cygnets. It's the ai that's truly evil, to the point where you can hear clarinet players breathing.

Indeed. One or two things I've read aout naval planning over the years indicate that sailing through a narrow shooting gallery wherer you are absolutely certain to be swarmed with drones and then sunk is not the done thing.

No and there won't be. Players fight all the time.

This is absolute nonsense. Mines are a thing, sure, but the main reason the navy won't go near the straights are sizzlers which there is no way of stopping

Most tankers have a double shell, so the navy ships are even less well placed to deal with mines.
