bee Posted September 3, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) . They are now saying that the missiles could have gone into the sea.... And it isn't known if they were armed or not edit to add...... http://news.sky.com/story/1136479/russia-two-missiles-fired-in-Mediterranean Russian radar has detected two ballistic "objects" fired towards the eastern Mediterranean from the central part of the sea, the country's defence ministry has reportedly said.Interfax news agency quoted a ministry spokesman as saying the launch was detected at 10.16 am Moscow time (7.16am UK time) by an early warning radar station at Armavir, near the Black Sea, which is designed to detect missiles from Europe and Iran. The Russian Embassy in Syria said there were no signs of a missile attack or explosions in the capital, Damascus. Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu had informed President Vladimir Putin of the launch, according to Interfax. "The trajectory of these objects goes from the central part of the Mediterranean Sea toward the eastern part of the Mediterranean coast," Interfax quoted the spokesman as saying. .

bee Posted September 3, 2013 Author #7 Share Posted September 3, 2013 :no: http://www.theguardi...n-refugees-live A few more details on the Israeli/US missile test, via Reuters.Israel said it carried out a test of a missile, used as a target in a US funded anti-missile system, in the Mediterranean on Tuesday. The Israeli Defence Ministry said the test was conducted at 9:15 a.m. (0615 GMT), about the same time that Russia's state-run RIA news agency reported that Russian radar had detected the launch of two ballistic "objects" in the Mediterranean. Early Reuters tweeted that the test involved the "anchor" anti-missile system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptor Witness Posted September 3, 2013 #8 Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) ....If we hit Syria without securing those chemical weapons first, and Israel is attacked with poison gas, my guess is Tehran and Damascus won't be habitable until the Second Coming. The number two makes a lot of sense. December 5, 2011 - Post 182 - http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=253473&st=60#entry4896105 Where is your prince of protection, I said? Even the birds of the air have fled. They will be your only warning, in the hour of your morning.

stevewinn Posted September 7, 2013 #12 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Are the reports true that Russia as sent another four naval ships to Syria and more alarming China sent three naval ships? apparently this news is four days old. (if true) i cant keep up, seen a report on Russia today (news channel) stating Iran will attack Israel if Syria is attacked. Israel as called up reservists and deployed its Iron dome missile defence system. Yesterday - the EU Political and Security Committee: members for Europe, Black Sea, Mediterranean and Indian Ocean sectors issued a joint communique to ALL merchant shipping in the Eastern Mediterranean . Due to the increase in military activity in the shipping lanes between the east coast of Cyprus and the Syrian Coastline it is recommended that merchant vessels heading for Turkish ports from the Suez Canal should steer a course 315º from Port Said, passing to the west of Cyprus before changing course for the destination port. Vessels “awaiting orders” are advised not to lay-by in this area but move to anchorages in Akrotiri or Episkopi Bays . The Ammochostos (Famagusta) to Mersin freight ferry has been advised to stay within Cypriot territorial waters from N35º40’02 41”, E034º35’33 05” to and from the port of Ammochostos. The Taşucu to Ammochostos ferry is to operate to Girne Feribotu rather than Ammochostos. The Greek registered ocean-going tug Christos XXIII is on station 21nm north-west of Haifa ready to render any assistance deemed necessary. i get the feeling this crisis as started to slide sidewards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
