The command of the command Dmitry Pletenchuk reported that such methods of the Russian Federation were resorted to 10 years ago. According to him, Russian vessels are now "closed" at the base point. Russian invaders hide the ships of their Black Sea Fleet in a bay, blocking the path to them flooded barges.

On April 4, a spokesman for the Naval Forces (Navy) of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Dmitry Pletenchuk told more about such tactics for the protection of vessels on the air of the Telelorphone on April 4. "This practice is not new, they have been doing around the so -called Crimean bridge. They hang the barriers to them. In fact, it is used as such elements of protective structures," the military emphasized.

According to him, the tactics of "flooding something somewhere" of the Russian Federation were resorted to 10 years ago - during the capture of Crimea. The invaders then drowned their own ships to be blocked in the bay. "As we can see, now they actually closed at the Novorossiysk base. They closed the entrance to the harbor, stretched the same Bonov barriers there, put barges and just sit on the base," the Navy spokesman said.

We will remind, intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of the United Kingdom reported that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue to show activity on the front line, but statistics indicate a decrease in the number of their attacks over the last month. Analysts explain this with the lack of "noticeable success".
