…It could become a juicy target for Ukrainian forces who have already made it clear they can reach out far from their shore to strike an enemy ship… The Drive: link |

Given the Ukrainian gift for making unexpected splashes, don't rule out their making a swift boat raid to steal her. |

If trhey have a mini sub with the ship, like mentioned in the article, that would be worth to steal. Could be used to resupply Mariopol steel works… |

I have also read articles that there may be a Christian relic on board the ship. A piece of the "true cross" is rumored to be in the chapel of the sunken ship. |

A Christian relic on a heathen ship???? I say boy, the Russian are heathens, listen to what I tell you!, as Foghorn Leghorn would say. |

Her deployment this soon, and potentially within range of Ukrainian missiles, strengthens the suspicion that Moskva may have had nukes on board. More photographs of Kommuna here: link |
