RT @JamieMctrusty: 31st December 1942: Battle of the Barents Sea. A German attack on convoy JW 51B headed by the heavy cruisers Lützow and Hipper was beaten off by a determined British defence. Afterwards, Hitler threatened to disband the entire Kreigsmarine surface fleet, but was ultimately dissuaded by Dönitz.
Pictured:
1) Damage to the destroyer HMS Onslow, lead ship of JW 51B’s escort force. 17 of her crew were killed and 23 wounded by shell hits from Hipper. Captain Robert Sherbrooke’s aggressive tactics were key to keeping the German cruisers at bay.

2) Sherbrooke himself received serious facial injuries during the battle, being temporarily blinded. He insisted on continuing to direct the battle for as long as possible, however, and received reports even as he was being treated. He was later awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions.

RT @CovertShores: ***UPDATE***
Russian Navy KRIVAK-I Class frigate "Ladny" of the Russian Black Sea Fleet had modified close-in defenses fitted earlier this year.
Likely to defend against Ukrainian maritime drones (USV)

Our team reached the 1000+ geolocations mapped. (geoconfirmed.org/israel)
From the 7 Oct Massacre to the bombing of Palestinian neighborhoods.
This and much more.
The exact location is on our map together with the footage (!).
