Russians must be running very low on electronics if they have to resort to stealing random shit from the ocean.

The incident came almost a year after Russia’s border guard removed more than 20 buoys demarcating shipping lanes from the Narva River, which forms part of Estonia’s eastern border.
As of May, Russia has still not returned the stolen buoys. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has contacted its Russian counterparts, but without success.
However, TalTech’s marine systems center says it is not giving up – next week it will place a new floating device at the same location.

I’m desperately hoping the new ones have remote detonated mines in them.

They just need to contact Mark Rober and his glitter bomb team: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgeXOVaJo_gnexNopBzUKdl3QKoADJlS8

Honestly some kind of naval grade glitter bomb that can cover a whole russian ship or even port in glitter would be hilarious.
1 yearMeh. I’m more microplastic than meat at this point. I should probably be considered a cyborg.
The buoy emits location data, so this is a little more than just a claim.
Esp. Kaliningrad being practically closed to outsiders and afaik a giant military base. No chance it’s a more ordinary theft.

They have always engaged in that sort of petty bullying of their neighbours. It is in reality Russia being in a state of constant “cold” warfare against them, but they know that their neighbours won’t respond. A couple of days ago a Russian warship wouldn’t move out of the way of a Danish ferry inside Danish territorial waters (even though ferry lanes are clearly marked as such), causing the ferry to last minute swerve.
Russia consider this psychological warfare, creating chaos and confusion. The country is a tumor on mankind, spreading its own shittiness everywhere it can.

The article says a lenient interpretation was the russians saw it in the water and thought it was a hazard. But tbh I doubt it.

They needed the parts to build a bicycle because they haven’t been able to steal any from Ukraine for a while.

At least one naval battle that ended with a net plus for them… /s
