“Russia took three ships carrying Kalibr cruise missiles into the Black Sea”, — write: www.radiosvoboda.org
According to the Ukrainian military, there are no Russian ships in the Sea of Azov, and there are six ships in the Mediterranean Sea, three of which are Caliber carriers with a total salvo of up to 25 missiles.
The last time Moscow sent missile carriers to the Black Sea was on December 13, when there were also three missile carriers. In the morning of that day, Russian troops launched a massive Russian missile attack on Ukraine.
According to the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, on December 13, Russia attacked Ukraine with, among other things, 24 Kalibr missiles.
On November 20, British intelligence said that since February 24, 2022, the Ukrainian Armed Forces had destroyed or damaged more than 25% of the main Russian warships operating in the Black Sea.
At the same time, British intelligence emphasizes that, despite the fact that the Russian Black Sea Fleet is currently limited to the eastern part of the Black Sea, it retains the ability to strike from a long distance on the territory of Ukraine in support of land operations.
In June, a representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence (GUR) of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Andriy Yusov, said that Russia is hiding large ships and Kalibr carriers, but “the hunt should not stop.”
According to the Ukrainian Navy, since the beginning of the full-scale war, the Russian Black Sea Fleet has lost about a third of its ships due to damage to Russian vessels during Ukrainian strikes.
