MOSCOW — A Russian naval reconnaissance ship sank Thursday after colliding with a freighter off Istanbul, but all crew members were rescued, the Defense Ministry said. Turkey’s coastal safety authority said all 78 personnel from the Russian frigate Liman were safe, as were all crew aboard the freighter, the Togo-flagged Youzarsif H.

The freighter was carrying livestock. The Defense Ministry said a hole was punched in the starboard side of the Liman during the collision, which occurred around midday Thursday about 40 kilometers (25 miles) northwest of the Bosphorus Strait.

Haha Putin. I've been saying it. Russia has antiquated technology and an aging military. They are clinging to their past prowess l, but reality is that they are shadow of where they were mitilarily. Not a threat.

Was the tug boat towing the Russian navy ship involved in the accident too?

Russians don't make their ships with bulkheads. Was this a 19th century ship?

I thought a spy ship was supposed to be sneaky. Not very sneaky if you run into a giant freighter

Doesn't speak very highly of Russian reconnaissance capabilities, does it?

I'd wager vodka was somehow involved.

Obviously not. My guess is they replaced the bulkheads with vodka storage.
