Russian missile systems
Trying to regain control over the northwestern part of the Black Sea, the Russian invaders were forced to deploy Bal and Bastion coastal missile systems in Crimea and the Kherson region.
The department also noted that for this purpose, the Russians are also overturning additional forces on Zmeiny Island.
Probability of missile strikes from the sea
noted that there is a high threat of missile strikes in the direction of the sea. In total, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, enemy ships and submarines have launched more than 300 cruise missiles in Ukraine.
The intensity of strikes with Kalibr cruise missiles decreased, at the same time, the enemy began to hit ground targets with anti-ship missiles, the main purpose of which is to destroy warships and ships, the report says.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine believe that this indicates that the infidels spent a lot of modern missiles, so now they are forced to use obsolete stocks.
30 Russian ships and submarines continue to blockade Ukrainian shipping. Since the beginning of the war, the enemy fleet has defeated 9 civilian ships, one of which sank. Unfortunately, two sailors died.
The situation at sea remains difficult
Now there are up to 12 large landing ships in the Black Sea, but more than a third of them are under repair. The Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to operate in the face of enemy superiority.
The main efforts are focused on the defense and release of Ukrainian ports, the protection of the sea coast, maintaining control over the water area of the Dnieper-Bug and Dniester estuaries, the Danube and Dnieper rivers , including in the area of Kyiv and Chernigov.
“Ships, boats and units of the Navy carry out an important task of covering the surface situation in the interests of using missile and artillery weapons and assist the ground forces in the coastal direction,” the agency noted. .
Marines, artillery units of the Navy and naval aviation continue to destroy the enemy from among the groupings of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Therefore, the situation in the northwestern part of the Black Sea remains difficult.
