Fro a quick glance this article is almost entirely from anonymous sources, one of the few exceptions seems to be… a Russian news agency, so I’m gonna go ahead and take this with a grain of salt.
It used to be that anonymous reporting just meant that they were protecting the informant. We used to be able to trust that major publications were vetting their informants and verifying information from multiple separate sources before reporting major stories.
Now that everything is about reporting as fast as possible for the 24/7 news cycle and Internet, regardless of initial accuracy, it’s impossible to tell if that’s the case or if the “journalist” doesn’t even know their source and credibility because it was completely anonymous.
yes, seems a lot of reporting is just allergic to evidence or naming sources
Good. Hope they finally get him his well deserved medal for it. As a german I’m honestly glad that thing is gone and out government can’t pull back on the lng sanctions.

A country facing destruction is justified harming its attacker. Full stop
If this is true, it wasn’t an attack on Russia, it was an attack on European infrastructure inside the Economic Exclusive Area of two European countries, that saw their waters contaminated with methane because of it. The pipelines weren’t being used, and probably they weren’t going to be used again for… well, ever, so it wasn’t even a source of income for Russia.
If these accusations are true, the attack only benefits Russia and everyone involved should be tried not only for the attack but for treason. In the case of Chervinsky I guess it’s more of adding it to his tab, since his hobby was apparently harming Ukraine by cosplaying as an Ukrainian James Bond.
