Russia's New Move Could Change Everything in the Baltic Sea

Russia has made a major move in the Baltic Sea—and it could reshape future NATO maritime operations. New aerial images appear to show heavy machine guns mounted on Russia's FSRU Marshal Vasilevskiy, raising fresh questions about the security of vessels linked to Russia's shadow fleet. Why would a civilian-operated LNG vessel suddenly display visible defensive weapons? And what could this mean for future boarding missions? In this video, we break down the newly released photographs, examine why military analysts believe the weapons were installed, and explain how helicopter-based boarding operations could become significantly more dangerous if similar defenses become widespread. We also cover Ukraine's latest long-range missile and drone strikes, including attacks on the Slavyansk-na-Kubani oil refinery, reported damage to transport infrastructure in occupied Crimea, and the broader impact these operations are having inside Russia.
