How does a country protect its cables? Does it require military intervention or are there other methods for protecting them from anchor drags, etc.?


Good thing I do have WWIII on "2025 Bingo"


Just give Ukraine what it needs to defeat Russia in Ukraine to prevent a real world war.


"Just give Ukraine what it needs to defeat Russia in Ukraine to prevent a real world war."

Ukraine needs ammo and soldiers. West is unable to produce enough of first, and is unwilling to give the second, which is reasonable, considering demography.


This will escalate to those that side with Ukraine and those that side with Russia, sadly we're too naive to learn from past mistakes.

Often it's just incompetence, not malice

Not much they could do considering it could be China or Russia.


> Hope the punishment for the crew that did it is death

This reflects more poorly on your own judgement and character than it reflects the magnitude of criminal liability the crew assumes.


They'll get the same punishment that the people who blew up Nord Stream 2 got.


The nord stream 2 cut off a major source of income for Russia. This is between two NATO members with no upside.
