Yesterday evening, the Black Sea Fleet patrol ship, which the occupiers withdrew from the occupied Crimea, entered the basing point in Novorossiysk. There may be enemy ships in Crimea, but they are supply vessels that do not pose a threat. In addition, there are still 5 large landing ships in Crimea that have been undergoing repairs for a long time. This was stated by the spokesman for the Ukrainian Navy Dmytro Pletenchuk during a telethon, UNN reports .
Details
We can state that in the evening it did enter the Novorossiysk basing point. It was accompanied by auxiliary fleet units. There was a possibility that it might simply lose its momentum, but this inter-base transfer was successful. This is almost a record pace of transferring a ship from one base to another. That is, they had no desire to stay at sea. You can see that they are the last to take away the assets that still have at least some value, because the patrol ship has a variety of weapons. It is able to conduct anti-submarine warfare and theoretically it is such a powerful combat unit. It is currently in the Novorossiysk port
According to him, the ship that was withdrawn from Crimea yesterday was probably the Ladny.
He also added that enemy ships may remain in Crimea, but they are supply vessels.
Auxiliary fleet. Units from the fleet are also part of the military. They are not civilian vessels, but they do not have the same weapons
In addition, he said that five large amphibious ships remain in Crimea, but there is a nuance.
They cannot repair them in any way. One of these ships is Ukrainian, the Konstantin Olshansky, which they decided to restore instead of the destroyed Minsk, because they are the same design. They decided it would be easier to restore the ship they had been plundering for 10 years than their own
