Yo ho ho, and a half litre of rum!

The thing that is funny though is that they have a zero tolerance policy, yet they have a bonded store (whatever that means) which is stocked with various alcoholic beverages.

In Jerusalem today, 2 teenage girls, around 12 years old according to witnesses, stabbed a Palestinian man in the back and in the head with scissors. They are assumed to have mistaken him for a jew.
The girls were ordered by the Israeli police that had arrived at the scene, to drop their scissors, and shot when they refused and instead charged at the police. One of the girls died to police fire, the other was injured.

That can't have been a Russian captain. If it was, he'd have drunk a full litre of vodka, not rum. And parked the ship safely in port at that.

There is such russian thing as admirals tea. You fill half of the glass with hot tea with lemon and other half with rum/ cognac. If you dont manage to drink it all in one shot, you get more rum added. This continues until you manage to drink it all in one sip or until you get totally wasted.
May be he tried to complete this interesting quest and failed.

They shot two twelve year old girls because one of them was armed with scissors? I mean, I recognize that they just killed a guy, but I feel like twelve year old girls wouldn't be all that hard to restrain.

Even for the off chance one of these girls may be carrying an explosive vests, its worth neutralizing them from a distance.

Anyone running with scissors is a weapon of mass ear dismemberment

Also seriously, they just killed a guy I would not underestimate them even if they're team killing noobs

Turkey shot down a Russian SU-24 fighter for violating it's airspace.

Turkey says the plane recieved 10 warnings in 5 minutes before being shot down.

Russia denies that, and denies even having flown in Turkish airspace.

At least one of the pilots is reported to have survived, and being held by Turkmen tribes.

Let's hope this cools down in a diplomatic way. Last thing we need is Russian retaliation on Turkey, and Turkey subsequently screaming article 5, world war 3.

NATO 1 : Russia 0 :D

And don't worry, Russia is smart enough to not touch a country with a real army, airforce, navy and no liberal-democrat politicians in charge.
I can bet that Russia will pretend that nothing happened

So Russian ministry of defense reported that SU-24 was shot down near Turkish border and that they are in process of locating the two pilots.
Dmitry Peskov (press spokesman for the President of Russia) said this is a pretty big incident.
