    Because that would piss putin off and the UK always backtracks when that’s possible, with ministers even publicly apologising to him on tv news.

      I dont really care what the UK and its politicians do or say. The press though should tell things as they are.

      On further research though, the operation was to hinder an operation or at least create inconvenience. It does not seem to have any ideological, social or political purpose

      Sabotage is typically the deliberate destruction or damage of property or resources to hinder an operation, while terrorism is the use of violence and intimidation to achieve political, ideological, or social goals.
