Ukraine Claims Russian Black Sea Fleet Commander's Death, Moscow Silent

Ukraine's special forces claim to have killed Admiral Viktor Sokolov, the commander of Russia's Black Sea Fleet, along with 33 other officers in a missile attack on the fleet's headquarters in Sevastopol. The Russian Defense Ministry has not confirmed or denied the reports. If true, this would be a significant blow to Russia in Crimea, which it annexed from Ukraine in 2014. Ukraine has been escalating its attacks in the Black Sea and Crimea, using missiles and assault drones, with the aim of hastening the end of the war.
