According to the commander of the Navy, vice-admiral Oleksii Neizhpapa, the attack was recorded by a drone and shared on social media, which shows the exact moment when the boat was hit and a fire broke out. The vessel, which belonged to the Russian Black Sea Fleet, was localized and eliminated during a coastal movement.
Although the precise date of the operation has not been revealed, it is assumed that a Bayraktar TB2-Eastdrone was used, based on the interface that can be seen in the published images. The number of Russian soldiers killed in the action has not yet been confirmed, and it was also not possible to accurately identify the model of the destroyed vessel.
The Ukrainian commander thanked the soldiers involved and emphasized the effectiveness of the operation. In the previous month, Ukraine had already performed a successful action with maritime and air drones in the Black Sea, where goals on russian control gas extraction platforms were hit, which strengthened its strategy to undermine the occupation power.
