The hypothesis that last summers telecom sabotage campaign in south Sweden was in fact aimed at dual use military installations is strengthened. Masts facing southeastern Baltic and Kaliningrad were hit. Finland is now implementing the tech. It is not public whether SE uses it.

Finally enjoyed some down ish time and spend whatever remained of it plunging into the depths of the late 1990s thanks to @midshipnews.org ! Awesome read, highly recommend it and will be eagerly waiting for the second book !

Two shadow tankers, flying Somali and Cameroon flags (possibly false) have picked the relative safety of Danish waters as they enter Baltic Sea via Öresund, seemingly careful in avoiding the normal route through Swedish waters. (lol) SANDHYA 9352195, KARTHA 9317949

Do you refer to Cameroon's announcement from Feb 6 here? So far, Cameroon doesn't seem to have delisted many ships. Acc. to #GISIS, just 5 are listed as CM False. We still see many ships changing their AIS flag status to Cameroon, with only a few switching AIS from Cameroon to e.g. Sierra Leone.
