She is carrying over her estimated 500 ton capacity as she sits far lower than she has in past shipments.
AND the plot thickens.....what the heck is going on?????
HMCS Fredericton is heading to Varna, Bulgaria. On the Bosphorus #Istanbul
It is getting confusing. Apparently Lady Story is not @HMCSFredericton since Fred just turned on her Ais. Odd
Now it is clear that @HMCSFredericton is messing with us. They changed the Ais registry from Lady Story (a cargo ship) to a warship+
And what is COTONOU ? ? ? @HMCSFredericton and the vessel in pic is French Navy Flamant class patrol vessel. Oy vey. and the plot thickens
Good question, surely Warship 337 must be @HMCSFredericton
They love playing with their ais signals. lady Story is no more.
Appears NATO warship was "masking" it's movements with a commercial tracking identification prior to entering the Bosphorus........

AS the anti Assad forces are in a defense only mode Assad continues to literally break the entire CoH WITHOUT a single Russian statement....AND he continues as did the RuAF to kill civilians with targeted terror attacks....
NOTICE the West says nothing nor does the UNSC......as he is even violating their three resolutions....
A mortar reportedly hit Masaken Barzeh neighborhood in Damascus city. SANA says shell was fired by" terrorists in East Ghouta,"
Critical development.....Iran now firing ballistic missiles in the ME supposedly first at IS BUT what about at some point Israel, Jordan, KSA and Turkey.
BREAKING: #Iran has reportedly launched balistic missiles on IS's positions near Makhmur in #Iraq for supporting Iraqi Army's offensive.
NOTE: Iran is not an active participant in the Iraqi fighting but now is....so is Iran expanding it's hegemon reach at the expense of KSA just as it was doing in Yemen and Syria after Lebanon???
These guys & the intl community can airdrop to Assad parts of Deir Ezzor but not rebel held Madaya & Daraya
Russia has stopped "pretending" they are distributing humanitarian aid as required by their own CoH...to the approximately 500K besieged and hard to get to locations.......

AND Obama remains TOTALLY silent as does Kerry after all his conversations with Putin and his FM....how strange is that?????
BTW...the Gaz-66s were recently shipped in and some commenters laughed about it.due to their age....well it seems they are carrying Spetsnaz personnel......
