Reports from the Russian economic zone of the Barents Sea resemble military reports - Norwegian warships are pursuing the Russian trawler "Electron". Its captain reports that incendiary bombs are being dropped on the deck. Several fishing vessels come to the aid of their comrades, apparently intending to engage in a naval battle. Only one circumstance prevents us from sympathizing with our sailors: they escaped from arrest in Norway, “taking” with them two inspectors from that country.
