Invaders Paint Over Names And Pennant Numbers On Their Vessels - State Border Service

Invaders paint over the names and pennant numbers on their vessels.

The State Border Guard Service has said this in a statement, Ukrainian News Agency reports.

"Currently, the military of the aggressor countries are painting over the names and pennant numbers on their vessels. Realizing the dirty methods of warfare by the rashists, this action is seen as preparation for the upcoming provocations against civilian vessels, followed by accusations of Ukrainian warships in them," the statement says.

It is noted that since the beginning of a large-scale invasion of Ukraine, the invaders have repeatedly distinguished themselves by meanness in the Black Sea.

So, under the pretext of a fake counter-terrorist operation, they blocked the work of Ukrainian ports.
Fired at 4 civilian vessels.

An ecological bomb was made from one of the wrecked tankers.

They also seize and hold captive civilian cargo vessels, impede rescue operations - they captured one search and rescue vessel and repeatedly threatened with weapons rescue boats that were going to help the crews of wrecked ships.

It is indicated that soon Russian vessels will not be able to leave ports due to the refusal of the Lloyd’s Register Voyage Rus company to sell and update C-MAP electronic navigation charts in Russia, which are used by most Russian vessels.

The EU countries and the UK are considering the possibility of banning Russian vessels from entering their ports.

Swedish ports have already declared a boycott of all Russian vessels and cargo.

The Danube Commission has deprived the Russian Federation of its powers and is demanding compensation for the disruption of navigation.

Turkey, on the other hand, uses the powers under the 1936 Montreux Convention to close the Bosporus and Dardanelles to foreign warships in wartime and in case of threat.

As Ukrainian News Agency reported, Oleksii Arestovych, adviser to the head of the President's Office, said that Russian troops had lost the ability to attack in all directions on the territory of Ukraine.
