Une idée de mission possible

[MajorBug]

Je suis tombé là dessus en cherchant des photos de battlecruiser Russe. Ca s'est passé en 2005 mais ça rentre bien dans la série du "Oops, l'espace aérien britannique" et du "Oops, l'espace aérien norvégien" de cette année

En plus ça se passe dans un coin qu'on connait bien

On March 23-24, a Russian naval landing force held for approximately 24 hours a beachhead near Feodosia on Ukraine's Crimea peninsula, as part of a military exercise not authorized by Ukraine.

At 6am on March 23, a Russian marine infantry unit based in Temryuk, Krasnodar Krai, Russia, landed 142 men and 28 vehicles (mainly APCs) ashore near Feodosia. The amphibious assault ship Nikolai Filchenkov of Russia's Black Sea Fleet based in Sevastopol, Ukraine, had picked up the landing unit in Novorossiysk, Russia, from where it had reached the Ukrainian coast during the night. The Russian ship notified the Ukrainian authorities when it crossed into Ukraine's territorial waters, but it did not provide the required information about its purpose, personnel, and cargo aboard. Upon landing, the marine infantry unit began setting up a training ground for an annual large-scale landing exercise, without pre-notification to Ukraine, much less permission from it as required. This exercise is usually held in April by prior arrangement.

Ukraine strongly protested the move. On March 24 at dawn, the Russian ship and the marine infantry unit left Ukrainian territory to return to Novorossiysk.

Explanatory press releases by the Russian Navy's Main Headquarters in Moscow and the Russian Black Sea Fleet command in Sevastopol stated, "The incident occurred because of uncoordinated actions by the Ukrainian authorities and the BSF command"; and, "It turned out that Ukrainian border guards had no information about the ship's arrival" (Itar-Tass, March 25). The euphemistic language sought to disguise the failure to request Ukraine's permission for the landing.

The Russian side may well have known that the landing of this unit was unlawful under the terms of the 1997 agreement on the legal status and conditions of stationing of the Russian Black Sea Fleet on the territory of Ukraine, as well as the accompanying agreement on the Russian Fleet's use of training grounds on Ukraine's territory. It also breached the Ukrainian law on the procedures regarding access of foreign military units on Ukraine's territory.
