Explosion After Ukraine Strikes Crimea Port | VOA News

Ukraine struck a large Russian landing warship in Crimea with cruise missiles in an overnight attack that killed at least one person and could hinder any Russian attempt to seize more Ukrainian territory along the Black Sea coast.

Ukrainian forces struck a Russian naval landing ship in Crimea on Tuesday, inflicting another blow to Russia’s Black Sea fleet.

The Ukrainian air force said it used cruise missiles and claimed that the attack destroyed the Novocherkassk.

Yurii Ihnat, spokesperson of Ukraine’s Air Forces Command, told VOA the Ukrainian military had information about the ship’s location and cargo, as well as Russian air defenses protecting the region. #Ukraine #Russia #Crimea #reels #videography #voanews
