MOSCOW ( Russian Border Patrol Detains Greenpeace Icebreaker )
MOSCOW – The Russian border patrol detained the Greenpeace icebreaker Arctic Sunrise after the environmental group decided to enter Arctic waters to protest oil exploration in the region despite Moscow’s denial of authorization.Greenpeace said Monday on its Web site that a patrol boarded the ship without the captain’s permission.
Border agents stopped the ship after Greenpeace activists in inflatable boats approached the seismic exploration vessel Geolog Dmitri Nalivkin, leased by Russian state oil giant Rosneft and ExxonMobil, with banners reading “Save the Arctic!”
Administrators of the Moscow-controlled Northern Sea Route rejected repeated requests from the Arctic Sunrise to enter the route headed for the Kara Sea, citing technical concerns that Greenpeace claims are specious.
Maria Favorskaya, Greenpeace spokeswoman in the Russian capital, said Sunday that the Arctic Sunrise had reached the Kara Sea to protest the drilling for gas and oil in the Arctic.
“We came here to expose preparations for oil drilling and what we ended up exposing was that, and something else – the efforts of the Russian authorities to defend oil interests,” Christy Ferguson, a Canadian crew member on the Arctic Sunrise, said Monday as the ship set course for Norwegian territorial waters.

Fars NEWS ( Syria's supersonic and anti-ship missiles will damage - U.S warships ) Hmm
Expert: Syria’s Supersonic Yakhont and Iskandar Missiles Deterring US Naval Attack
TEHRAN (FNA)- Syria's supersonic and anti-ship missiles as well as the Lebanese Hezbollah movement will inflict astonishing damage on any invading force, specially the US Navy's giant warships, an expert said, adding that the missile capability is working as a deterrent to a US naval attack on Syria.
“The supersonic and long-range anti-ship Yakhont missiles of the Syrian army and the Lebanese Hezbollah (resistance movement) are serious deterrents to a US naval attack by its warships in the Mediterranean Sea,” Dr. Mostafa Zahra, a military analyst and strategic studies expert, told FNA on Monday.
He said that Syria’s Iskandar high-precision ballistic missiles and its anti-ship Scud missiles will also target the US warships in case of a US naval invasion of Syria, reminding that the American military vessels are not equipped with any weapons system to intercept or divert the Syrian anti-ship missiles.
The P-800 Oniks, also known in export markets as Yakhont (in English means ruby or sapphire), is a Russian/Soviet supersonic anti-ship cruise missile developed by NPO Mashinostroyeniya as a ramjet version of P-80 Zubr. The missile has a range of 300 kilometers.
Development of Yakhont missiles officially started in 1983, and by 2001 allowed the launch of the missile from land, sea, air and submarines. The missile has the NATO reporting codename SS-N-26. It is reportedly a replacement for the P-270 Moskit, but possibly also for the P-700 Granit.
Earlier on Sunday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov warned the United States against the ‘extremely dangerous consequences’ of military action against Syria.
Lavrov made the remarks during a telephone conversation with US Secretary of State John Kerry yesterday.
"Sergei Lavrov drew attention to the extremely dangerous consequences of a possible new military intervention for the whole Middle East and North Africa region," the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
It added that Moscow was "deeply alarmed" by Washington’s statement about its readiness to intervene in Syria.
Foreign Minister Lavrov urged restraint during the conversation with John Kerry, the statement said.
US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said on August 23 that the Pentagon was positioning military forces as part of "contingency options" provided to US President Barack Obama regarding Syria.
France and the Israeli regime have also called for military action against the government of President Bashar al-Assad.
Hagel’s comments have been interpreted as a tacit suggestion that the US may be preparing for a military strike on Syria. The US defense secretary repeated similar remarks on Sunday during a visit to Malaysia.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad said in a recent interview with the Russian newspaper Izvestia that any military intervention by the US would end in "failure".
The United Nations says over 100,000 people have been killed and a total of 7.8 million of others displaced due to the turmoil that has gripped Syria since March 2011.
