Strikes on russian ships and infrastructure of the Black Sea Fleet are likely to continue to deter russian forces from redeploying to Sevastopol and the western part of the Black Sea. This is stated in a new report by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), UNN reports .

Details

ISW continues to assess that Ukrainian strikes against the BSF ships and infrastructure are likely to continue to deter russian forces from redeploying to Sevastopol and the western Black Sea and to hamper the BSF's ability to maximize its combat capabilities

- the report says.

It is noted that on March 25, the GUR stated that on March 23, Ukrainian troops struck at the Black Sea Fleet ship repair plant in Sevastopol, where the Yamal landing ship was stationed, breaking through the upper deck and forcing the Black Sea Fleet personnel to continuously pump water from the ship.

Navy spokesman Dmytro Pletenchuk said that the Ukrainian strike on the BSF communications center on March 23 caused significant damage, which, according to Pletenchuk, could significantly interfere with the functioning of the BSF, as the communications center was responsible for the fleet's overall operations, and was responsible for fleet support, routine maintenance, and other important functions.

Pletenchuk also said that Ukrainian forces also struck the Ivan Khurs reconnaissance ship, but that they are currently checking the damage to it.

Deputy Chief of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, Major General Vadym Skibitskyi, said that Ukrainian troops used unmanned robotic drones of the Ukrainian Maritime Autonomous Guard (Magura) to attack the Ivan Khurs and Yamal ships and that these Ukrainian Navy drones are becoming more powerful and accurate

- the report says.

In addition, Pletenchuk and Natalia Gumenyuk, head of the press center of the Southern Ukrainian Defense Forces, said that russian forces have rarely used Kalibr missiles in recent months because the naval base in Sevastopol is the only base that has the infrastructure necessary to transfer these missiles to ships.

Recall

Today, the Ukrainian Neptune hit the large landing ship Konstantin Olshansky, which was captured by the russian occupiers in 2014.
