Authorities have not ruled out foul play — the incident advisory specifically requests vessels report suspicious activity rather than issuing a standard safety notice. The location has previously seen incidents involving suspected sabotage.

The engagement profile — aerial tracking of small fast patrol boats at close range — points to loitering munitions or FPV attack drones. Both vessels destroyed in a single operational sequence.

The isolation perimeter contained the damage - but the outcome exposes a gap in EOD capability for this threat category. Whether deliberately deployed or adrift from the Black Sea conflict zone, this is a direct strike on civilian port infrastructure inside a #NATO member state.
