With no Russian military vessels at Tartus, commercial activity at the key Syrian port also ceased. Cargo ships notorious for shipping grain from Crimea to Syria halted their voyages after Assad fled. w/ @riley_mellen nytimes.com/2024/12/11/world…
Nearly all Russian naval assets have left their usual positions at the Tartus port base, as @riley_mellen and I reported for @nytimes yesterday. nytimes.com/live/2024/12/09/…

Our long awaited Maritime Cyber Attack Database or MCAD for short goes live today on the web. For mobile devices we have an app already available on Android and the Apple iOS version coming very soon. Thanks to our researchers, our student helpers and our partners.
💡It’s a big day for @StephenMcCombie, our Maritime IT Security researcher. He and his team have launched a database that exposes cyber hacking in the worldwide maritime industry.👉 bit.ly/3D9vvkc #cybersecurity #maritimeindustry #maritime #security #weareNHLStenden
I would like to particularly thank @FirthClinton and the Ernst & Young team for their contribution to the realisation of the MCAD project and other research initiatives in this critical area.

Did the Ukrainians bomb the Nord Stream pipeline?
Honestly, I thought Russia had the best mix of means, motive + opportunity. If indeed it was Ukrainians - not *the* Ukrainians ie Kyiv - then that raises qs of common sense and control. For @SpecCoffeeHouse
