Hit the ship and then act like you are rescuing it. This is the oldest mullah trick. They do the same for their own public. Create black market and hardship and then act like an angels and pretend you are trying to rescue it by killing a few of their own. It is sad, but a lot of idiots in EU will keep falling for this.
