A Ukraine sailor was arrested and later released after he tried to sink his Russian boss's luxury yacht.

 

Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the 55-year-old Ukrainian sailor tried to submerge the £5m vessel at Pord Adriano in Majorca.

He was arrested for his actions but was released after explaining the situation to authorities.

He was quoted as saying upon his release: "I don't regret anything I've done and I would do it again."

 

The man worked as a mechanic on the Lady Anastasia ship for roughly 10 years and said, according to local media, that the attempted sinking was an "act of revenge" against the owner of the boat, the Russian Alexander Mijeev who holds a high position in a Russian state company specialising in weapons.

When the Civil Guard arrived, the sailor turned himself in and said: "My boss is a criminal who sells weapons that kill the Ukrainian people."

 

In a statement to authorities the unnamed man said he was watching the news about the war and saw a cruise missile attack on a building in Kyiv. The missile is one of those produced by his boss' company.

Two hours after watching the news, he returned to the boat with a plan to damage it.

He opened a large valve in the engine room and a second in a compartment where the crew lives. However,  he made sure to close the fuel valves of the yacht so that there would be no pollution.

He told his fellow crew members his plans and said "don't worry because I will take all the blame".

 

He told the crewmen, also Ukrainian, to abandon ship and that he would take full responsibility. However they still tried to stop the leak along with workers from the port.

 

It is reported the vessel was partially sunk.

 

When the police arrived the man confessed quickly but he has since been released although it is not clear if he will be charged.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

  The NBA has suspended former San Antonio Spurs guard  Joshua Primo   for four games   ... after it says it found he exposed his private parts to multiple women. The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league." They did, however, note that they "did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures." "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said. Dr. Hillary Cauthen , Primo's former therapist, was the first to  bring the allegations  against Primo to light after she claimed last fall that he exposed himself to her on nine separate occasions. Dr. Cauthen's attorney,  Tony Buzbee , alleged the Spurs were aware of Primo's actions, but didn't take action. Cauthen went on to file

 Sky Sports were left red-faced after an on-screen graphic mistakenly introduced Chelsea defender Axel Disasi as Noni Madueke on Tuesday night. The pair were both the scoresheet as the Blues thrashed Middlesbrough 6-1 at Stamford Bridge in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final to boo their place at Wembley.

Madueke is four years younger than his Chelsea teammate, plays in a different role and is English, while Disasi is French.
