supplemented Print Komentari100
Minesweeper "Odessa" attempted to break the siege on Lake Donuzlav.
This Ukrainian Pravda said one of the crew members of the ship.
He said about an hour ago the ship tried to pass between two Russian ships sunk .
According to the source , "Odessa" is nearly succeeded, but before them came the Russian boat and hit the side. Then bow "Odessa" was grounded.
The crew of the trawler is going to continue to attempt to break through the blockade.
However trawler crew "Odessa" joined three sailors from the ship "Chernihiv" previously moored to the shore.
As deputy Irina Gerashchenko in your Facebook, commander of "Odessa" - captain third rank Yuri Fedash - said that the backbone of the team of 50 sailors, "Odessa" is faithful to the oath and ukrainskomu flag. The decision to adopt families sailors soon.
Still trying to make sense of the writing...
15 minutes ago: Maximum re-post! (personal phone call with friend there!)
Captain of the third -ranking commander of the Ukrainian trawler “Odessa” Yuri Fedash.
The officer said the high spirits of all trawler crew stand to last. The same high moral readiness crew large landing ship “Konstantin Olshansky “ under Captain 2 rank Dmitry Kovalenko. Crews operate fully interact with one another! “Odessa” and “ Olshansky “ - two high courage of an island under the Ukrainian flag in the occupied territories.
God keeps you protected! Glory to the Nation! And the enemy death.
Little help here? Anyone?
Sounds like they attempted to pass between the ships that Russia scuttled when they were hit on the side by either a Russian ship or one of the scuttled ships causing them to ground out.
Russia is really trying hard to get a Ukrainian ship to fire upon them so they can use it as a reason to attack Ukraine.
Custer almost won also.
paragraphs?
Nah...The only time came close to winning is before the battle started. Kind of like the UMass Tennessee game yesterday.
In relations among nations, there really is no law, although one can be grateful for such conventions as the ban on poison gas and such.
A country that does not invest in self-defense really has no just cause to complain when it is overrun. A people who do not will the expense and responsibility of self-defense do not really will independence or liberty.
Poland in 1939, along with France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Scandinavia, etc., did not really will their independence and national identity. Neither did England. The same is true of Ukraine and many other countries today.
The Swiss don’t go whining to others about their independence and freedom. Neither should any other people. If they can’t be bothered to defend themselves, they invite enslavement, and should accept it with a quiet dignity.
"Might Makes Right"...always has, always will.
You and me both. At least it doesn't have: #@&rr50694756kijdhoiugj-92ue834hf sprinkled throughout..

Close but no zigar
That’s the first time I’ve seen the “Konstantin Olshansky “ mentioned. Where is it? It wasn’t one of the ships blockaded.
It sounds like these brave Ukranians almost succeeded at escaping instead of surrendering. And they’re bragging about it.
Semper911,
I have always been so proud of the U.S. But, we are not standing by our agreement. Yes, Putin has violated THE BUDAPEST REFERENDUM. In 1994, Ukraine agreed to give up its Soviet-era nuclear arsenal in return for guarantees — signed by the UNITED STATES, the United Kingdom and Russia — for its territorial integrity and independence. ***Please see videos below.. good information in English.
I now have friends of Ukraine clergy on Facebook.
It is hard for me to translate correctly using google. My best understanding [?] is one ship is scuttled the other is OK & they fight on. But, I do know earlier the Russians took an old ship & sank it to not allow Ukraine ships out of harbor... so... I also know the families of Military & Navy based in Crimea are endanger. They are been sent (adopted) to Kiev for safety & receiving housing, food jobs.
Putin had said 2 weeks ago that the Russians would hide behind women & children... I thought something had been translate wrong. But,that is what is happening.
For instance:
Members of the Southern Naval Base Naval Forces of Ukraine Novoozerne village in the west of the Crimea as a whole refused to move on to serve in the armed forces of Russia and left the military facility .
Told the head of the Crimean media center Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Vladislav Seleznev on his page on the social network.
This morning, representatives of the Russian Black Sea Fleet nominated personnel of a military unit ultimatum - 12.00 to decide: Do you want to go to war to serve in the Armed Forces or not.
“At 12:00 , it was announced on the overall alignment of the parade ground. Everyone who did not want to continue to serve in the Armed Forces were asked to leave the parts , the rest had to stay on the parade ground. During the alignment on the parade ground of the military unit sounded Ukraine National Anthem , and then march “Farewell of Slav” The sounds of the march of the military personnel as a whole territory left “- written by Seleznev .
GOOGLE TRANSLATE: But later mom of soldier’s wife wrote on her status:
“You know, like today took Russian base? Without firing a shot, although the main headquarters - a patriots of Ukraine to the bone, and was born and raised in the Crimea ... They were ready to die defending this country’s flag. RUSSIAS SURROUNDED THE SCHOOL AND KINDERGARTEN And the [Russian] military unit said - not lay down your arms - we enter to children ... Natasha [wife] writhing in hysterics, she never NEVER nobody wished evil. Today she does wish .. through what she experienced. And the fathers of these children ... who are faithful to the oath ... but who above all value their children’s lives ... I now have her tears rolling down her cheeks ... She hates Russian. Anyone with such joy rubbing his palms tends to select the Crimea ... And the Putin silently put machines on the ground ... A Russian TV to tell that without a drop of blood ... “
I also understand military was later captured at train station to be TORTURED (electric shock, beaten, shot) for any “secrets.” EIGHT WERE RELEASED one man had 2 bullets removed from his legs. I can’t find article right now.
Desire to leave the Crimea already expressed 25,000 people.
“ Already 25,000 people have expressed their desire to leave the Crimea” , - she said.
The Minister also said that now operates headquarters headed by Vice Prime Minister of Ukraine to assist families who are moving from the Crimea in other regions of Ukraine .
According to her , the refugees are placed in nursing homes, where the occupier is temporarily discontinued vacationers.
“A lot of (refugees) to call in Vinnitsa and Lviv regions , as well as Kiev . Once a person arrives , it is fixed and gets registered as a recipient of various social payments . All payments are translated at the location ,” - said the Minister.
Denisov also reported that they assisted employment .

Russia has invaded the Crimean peninsula of Ukraine and taken over its civilian and military infrastructure. Not a shot has been fired so far, but Russia is using its superior force to intimidate Ukrainian troops in an attempt to get them to surrender.

Hence my contention that nobody will advance nuclear proliferation more in the next hundred years than the Obama just did. Ukraine had the third largest nuclear weapons stockpile, given up in guarantees of security by both USA and Russia. Now invaded by one, the other walks away. Japan, Saudi Arabia, etc will all now go all-in acquiring nuclear arms.
This is a cool story—It should be used more—Maybe a US ship should break the blockade —or some other nation—so the boat can leave the harbor.
