The war in Ukraine is taking a new, shadowy turn – secret underwater attacks on Russian tankers that are shocking the world! While the globe fears a potential third world war, special forces and divers are carrying out covert operations that could change the course of the conflict. Russia, whose economy depends heavily on oil and gas exports, faces an invisible enemy – the so-called “shadow fleet” of tankers that successfully bypass G7 sanctions. But that’s not all! Explosions on tankers like the “Eco Wizard” in the Russian port of Ust-Luga, possibly the sixth attack this year, shed new light on the war strategy.
These explosions are no accident – they are most likely the work of special forces divers using sticky explosives known as “limpet mines,” quietly and effectively placed underwater. These missions are so sophisticated that divers use pure oxygen rebreathers, leaving no bubbles and avoiding detection. Navigating underwater without GPS, relying only on compasses, and the risk of convulsions due to depth make these operations extremely dangerous but deadly effective.
The United Kingdom, known for its elite Special Boat Service (SBS), employs these tactics to track and destroy enemy mines and vessels. However, the British fleet of specialized destroyer ships is soon to be retired, and drone replacements are not yet ready, which could mean a loss of key underwater operational capabilities.
This type of warfare shows how far the Ukraine conflict is from traditional battles. It’s a war of shadows, secret operations, and high-tech tactics that can have a massive impact on the global economy and security. While the world fears escalation, these underwater warriors quietly change the rules of the game.
If you think war is only on land or in the air, think again. Underwater war is here, and it’s deadly. So, what do you think – will these secret operations really change the course of the war, or is it just a drop in the ocean? Drop a comment and let your voice be heard in this underwater drama!
