Pap Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 6 minutes ago, Mikey1874 said: The scenario is, unconfirmed that Ukraine sent up one of the Turkish drones to divert the defensive systems. Then used the stormy weather conditions to send the missile with range of around 60 kilometres to skim the water undetected. Missile is Ukrainian made. Brilliant if true.

JFK-1 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Not sure if the bulk of the crew had already been evacuated following the missile strikes.

JFK-1 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 BBC: US officials, speaking anonymously, say they believe the Russian missile cruiser Mosvka was hit by two Ukrainian Neptune missiles and there were Russian casualties when the ship sank. Russia says the Moskva, the flagship of Russia's Black Sea Fleet, sank after a fire onboard. The 510-crew warship was a symbol of Russia's military power, leading its naval assault on Ukraine. Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to Ukraine's ministry of internal affairs, said the ship's captain, Anton Kuprin, had died during an "explosion and fire on board".
