The Portuguese Navy has reopened disciplinary cases against military personnel who refused to board the NRP Mondego in 2023, after the Supreme Administrative Court ruled the initial sanctions unlawful. The Navy stated it is correcting procedural flaws identified by the courts to determine if disciplinary infractions occurred, a matter not yet addressed by judicial ruling. The case stems from an incident on March 11, 2023, when the vessel failed to monitor a Russian ship near Porto Santo after crew members refused to sail, citing safety concerns.
