Ukrainian Strikes Devastate Russian Black Sea Fleet
TL;DR
Ukraine claims that Russia has relocated almost all combat vessels capable of firing cruise missiles from Crimea, leaving only the Cyclone warship, which has not launched a single missile. Ukraine has been successful in targeting Russian vessels, including large landing ships and a submarine, using missiles and drones, forcing Russia to relocate some naval assets further from Ukraine's reach. Despite this, Russia remains dominant in much of the Black Sea and is reportedly planning a new military base in Abkhazia.
