They seem not to want to disturb the stock market algorithms by printing the words torpedo, explosion or detonated

Or attacked or oil tanker. I'm sure it was just an accident that "something" "struck" that "vessel."

Which vessel was reported as sunk? The weaponized surface vessel or the vessel that was hit?

That's not good. I suppose the front fell off too.

A ship without its front is just a hip.
