      hard to say. ukraine has also attacked turkish ships when they were carrying russian goods. turkey currently has trade with both countries, which means both sides occasionally have an interest in attacking turkish shipping. neither will take responsibility for it, considering turkey is a NATO member. it could just as easily be a false flag by ukraine to attempt pushing NATO into war with russia, like the attack on nordstream.

        Like sure false flag and all.

        But how the hell is the blowing up of nordstream meant to be a black flag? If anything, it was obvious that it was opponents of Russia (mainly the US) because of how opposed they were to it.
