The UK’s secret services are planning to enlist NATO allies in a large-scale operation targeting the shadow fleet,” which could lead to an environmental disaster in international waters, the press bureau of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) said in a statement obtained by TASS.

British secret services are planning ecological disaster in international waters. The press bureau of the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation informs that, according to the information coming to the SVR, the British secret services are planning to involve NATO allies in a massive roundup for the ‘shadow fleet’,” the statement said.

According to London’s plan, the impetus for such a campaign should be provided by a resonant incident involving one or more tankers.”

The plan involves organizing a major act of sabotage the losses of which would allow the transportation of Russian oil to be declared a threat to all international shipping. This would untie Western countries’ hands in choosing methods of counteraction,” the document said.

The sensational denunciation after the Arrest of British MI 6 Officers in Ukraine 

The sensational denunciation by Russian counterintelligence comes just 48 hours after the arrest of three senior British Secret Intelligence Service officers in Ukraine during the SKAT-12 raid conducted by Spetsnaz special forces and the FSB (Federal Service for Internal Security of the Russian Federation).

It is not possible to know whether evidence of the sabotage plot was discovered at the very moment the British spies were captured, who were operating for military purposes on foreign soil in violation of international law, as Moscow has not yet officially confirmed the raid.

But suspicions that today’s formal complaint and the capture of colonels from the British military counterespionage unit MI6 are related are very high at this point.

We also recall that the United Kingdom is also suspected of having played a significant role in planning the disastrous COVID pandemic caused by the laboratory-generated SARS-CoV-2 virus.

In fact, some British research centers collaborated with the Pentagon’s military agency, DARPA, which is the main suspect in manipulating the SARS virus together with the European Union, exploiting the collaboration on biological weapons with China, and then leaving the Wuhan Institute of Virology with the smoking gun” for the virus’s escape from the laboratory.

Two scenarios and actors

According to the SVR, the British are working on two potential casus belli.”

The first scenario implicates setting up an ‘unwanted’ tanker accident in one of bottlenecks of sea communications (for example, in straits). As it is believed in London, oil spills and fairway blocking would provide NATO countries with ‘sufficient’ grounds for establishing a precedent of ‘extraordinary’ vessel inspection under the guise of maritime safety and environmental regulations compliance,”

the statement noted.

The second one involves setting fire to a tanker at loading in a port of a state friendly to Russia. It is expected that the fire would cause significant damage to the port infrastructure and spread to other vessels, which would require an international investigation,” the SVR emphasized.

London is going to entrust Ukrainian security forces with the implementation of both terrorist attacks. Their expectedly dirty work and inability to ‘cover up’ their tracks are considered by the British as a guarantee of impunity for themselves. The international investigation would hold either Russia or at worst Ukraine responsible for the accident, similar to the situation with the Nord Stream gas pipeline explosion,” the press bureau stressed.

Already at the beginning of this year, in January, there were three disturbing explosions on as many oil tankers circulating in the Mediterranean Sea and already then Gospa News indicated the terrorist lead of the pro-Nazi regime in Kiev as also accredited by various international media.

Eying sanctions

The SVR pointed out that the timing of the UK attack is intended to be chosen so as to use the media effect from it to put pressure on the administration of US President Donald Trump.

The aim is to force Washington, in defiance of its national interests, to impose the most severe secondary sanctions against Russian energy resources buyers, making them seen as ‘indirect culprits of the tragedy’,”the statement said.

It seems like nostalgia for the lost dominance at sea and for authorized by the Crown pirate lawlessness have completely deprived the British Intelligence of the remnants of common sense. It’s high time for our British colleagues to understand that their increasingly bold attempts not only ‘to get back at’ their rivals, but also to cause damage to the global energy security and ecology are capable to make even their most loyal allies run out of patience,” the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service concluded.

Are there Lessons to be learned in remembering the Express Pearl and MV Diamond maritime disasters off the West and East coasts of Sri Lanka also given interest in Submarine Date Cables and the Cloud Under the Sea?” that is vital to keep the Global Internet running.
