"Due to the attacks of Ukrainian drones": the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation is afraid to leave the water area of ​​Crimea - Humeniuk

According to her, the situation with the state of the fleet of the enemy in the Crimea is exacerbated every day. Russian vessels are increasingly leaving the territorial waters of the temporarily occupied peninsula for fear of possible attacks of Ukrainian surface drones. The representative of the Defense Forces of South of Ukraine reported that the Russian Black Sea Fleet is no longer overcome by Cape Tarhankut in his movements.

At the same time, Humeniuk noted that the enemy tried to compensate for the shortcomings of his ships through aviation. The occupiers almost daily attack the island of Snake, which has become a kind of "tradition" for them. "They are directed to three airbags in the direction of Snake Island in order to demonstrate that they allegedly rule over civilian navigation and try to dictate their conditions," the officer said.

Humeniuk emphasized that from the sea point of view the front line for a long time retreated to a distance of 200 kilometers from the free coast of Ukraine. We will remind, since the beginning of the full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, in February 2022, the Black Sea Fleet of Russia consisted of 58 warships. Given patrol boats - 74. During the 19 months of the Armed Forces, about 14 vessels were damaged or damaged.

Among them are large landing ships "Saratov", "Novocherkask", "Orsk", "Caesar Kunikov", flagship rocket cruiser "Moscow"-one of the significant victories for Ukraine, Russian tug "Vasyl Beh" with the anti-aircraft missile complex "Thor" , Admiral Makarov frigate, Ivan Golubets, Minsk, diesel-electric submarine "Rostov-on-Don", two patrol ships of 22160 type "Vasyl Bykov" and the Russian rocket ship "Samum".
