TL;DR Summary

A Ukrainian pilot from a secretive unit within Ukraine's defense intelligence agency revealed that six sea drones, powered by jet skis, were used to sink a Russian guided missile ship, the Ivanovets, near the Russian-occupied Crimean Peninsula. The drones, known as "MAGURA," have a range of around 800 kilometers and have been used in a series of attacks on Russian targets. Ukraine's increasing use of drones, including recent attacks on Russian oil and gas infrastructure, is seen as a way to level the playing field with Russia and avoid being drawn into a positional war. The sinking of the Ivanovets is another victory for Ukraine's campaign against Russia's Black Sea Fleet, showcasing the effectiveness of drones in naval warfare.
