The Ukrainian Navy spokesperson explained that the destruction of the Rostov-on-Don submarine was the result of Russia's unsuccessful information policy. After the first strike, the Russians moved the boat, which provoked a second strike.

The submarine "Rostov-on-Don" destroyed by the Ukrainian Armed Forces was the result of unsuccessful actions of the Russians and their information policy, which became a trigger for its secondary damage, said Dmytro Pletenchuk, a spokesman for the Ukrainian Navy, during a telethon, UNN reports .

As for the Rostov-on-Don submarine, it is a consequence of the Russians' unsuccessful information policy and their unsuccessful actions

- Pletenchuk says.

He says that the only thing the Russians should have done in this case was to drag it as far away from the Azov Sea as possible or not touch it at all after it was hit.

But, as usual, they did the opposite - they moved it to another location, to another plant for repairs or covered it with a tent to create intrigue, and at the same time, they announced that they would definitely restore it.

Of course, this could have been a trigger for its secondary damage, so it is still an underwater carrier.

In the Black Sea, in fact, it is the only type of ship they can still use. Yes, it was hit. Most likely, it is now definitely beyond repair, although in fact we were already sure last time that it was inoperable, because the damage was also serious, and a submarine is much more difficult to repair than a surface ship

 - summarized Pletenchuk.

Recall

On August 6, the Ukrainian Defense Forces struck at the Russian Black Sea Fleet submarine Rostov-on-Don and the enemy's S-400 anti-aircraft missile system in the temporarily occupied Crimea.
