    Ukrainian forces have destroyed another Russian warship off the southern coast of occupied Crimea, Kyiv’s military reported on Wednesday, in its latest drone attack on Moscow’s Black Sea fleet.

    The Ukrainian intelligence services (GUR) posted a video said to show multiple naval drones attacking the 90-person, 113m-long Caesar Kunikov Ropucha-class landing ship in the early hours of Wednesday. It is another embarrassing blow for Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Black Sea fleet, and a significant success for Ukraine.
