Russia Bolsters Naval Presence in Black Sea with 2 Kaliber Carriers

Russia has increased the number of combat-ready warships in the Black Sea to 11, including two missile ships equipped with a total of 12 Kalibr-type cruise missiles. The increase in warships comes as tensions between Russia and Ukraine continue to escalate, with both sides suffering naval hits. Russia has been using its Black Sea Fleet to launch missile attacks on various areas in Ukraine, and the UK Ministry of Defense believes that Russia sees land attack cruise missiles as a key capability to disrupt Ukrainian counter-offensives and as having an important role in any hypothetical conflict with NATO.

Ukraine claims responsibility for destroying Russian cruise missiles in Crimea.

Russian Kalibr cruise missiles being transported by train to the Black Sea fleet in Crimea were destroyed in an explosion in Dzhankoi, Ukraine. While Ukrainian authorities did not claim responsibility for the attack, they believe it should prompt Russia to leave the Black Sea peninsula. The missiles had a range of over 1,550 miles on land and 233 miles at sea. Russian-installed authorities in Crimea claimed that Ukrainian drones targeted civilian facilities in Dzhankoi, causing damage to power lines, a house, a store, and a college building.

Ukrainian authorities did not directly claim responsibility for the strike but said it serves to further "demilitarize Russia and prepare the Crimean peninsula for de-occupation." The strike follows Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to Crimea on Saturday to mark the ninth anniversary of its annexation.
