Ursa Major Was Sunk ...

 ... and it was not a simple terrorist act--it was, likely, an attack by an unknown sub. 

МОСКВА, 25 дек — РИА Новости. Причиной крушения российского сухогруза "Урса Майор" в Средиземном море стал теракт, заявил РИА Новости судовладелец, группа компаний "Оборонлогистика". "Оборонлогистика" полагает, что 23 декабря 2024 года была совершена целенаправленная террористическая атака на судно "Урса Майор", принадлежащее компании. По показаниям членов экипажа судна, 23 декабря 2024-го, в 13:50 (по московскому времени), произошли три последовательных взрыва с правого борта, в районе кормовой части", — сказали в пресс-службе.
Translation: MOSCOW, December 25 — RIA Novosti. The cause of the sinking of the Russian dry cargo ship Ursa Mayor in the Mediterranean Sea was a terrorist attack, the ship owner, the Oboronlogistics group of companies, told RIA Novosti. "Oboronlogistics believes that on December 23, 2024, a targeted terrorist attack was carried out on the Ursa Mayor vessel, which belongs to the company. According to the testimony of the ship's crew, on December 23, 2024, at 13:50 (Moscow time), three successive explosions occurred on the starboard side, near the stern," the press service said.

It is too early to speculate on who could have done it, but Ursa Major is a large vessel and what is described sounds like torpedo attack at the screw-rudder group (винто-рулевая группа). We still have to wait for information though.

But here, there is no doubt that it was a terrorist act with Azerbaijan Airlines Embraer jet.

These are holes from the elements of the explosive device on board. These are not birds' impact holes. We all can easily arrive to the conclusion of who could be the "beneficiary" of these atrocities but still--let's wait for more detailed information.
