One of Russia’s most formidable submarines was damaged after Ukraine launched a barrage of British Storm Shadow missiles, in a major attack on the Black Sea fleet.
The vessel, believed to be an improved Kilo class attack submarine, was hit in the overnight attack on Sevastopol, which also damaged a Russian amphibious landing ship.
“Unfortunately, three Storm Shadow missiles reached their target. The landing ship ‘Minsk’ and the submarine ‘Rostov-on-Don’, which were in dry dock, received varying degrees of damage,” the Russian Rybar Telegram channel reported.
Mykola Oleshchuk, the head of the Ukrainian Air Force, appeared to confirm that Storm Shadow missiles were used in the strike when he congratulated his pilots for their “excellent combat work”.

Good
Putin: "everything is going according to plan"
✊✊✊
Well that Storm shadow has been incredibly effective.
Thank for this rockets
With NATO weapon we have a hope
Put a fork in the Black Sea Fleet – it’s done.
This war is horrible.
The Russians like to kill people and the Ukrainians love people and don't want to kill yet they defend their country with incredible strength and intelligence. The Russians are stupid and ugly and dirty that's why they are waging such a barbaric war against Ukraine.
Russian defence ministry: "minor damage" 😂
Wow……they hit ships in a dry repair dock! Shame on UK for helping the AFU
Looks like more promotions to special underwater operations.
Go Ukraine! Isn't it funny that Putins only friends are Kim Jong Un, Lukashenko, Xi Ziping, and Assad? Ever wondered why? They are all dictators.
Good. send about 500 more into them.
ukrania is not fighting with russia. nato us hitting russia using ukranians.
so no time to waste. russia must finish of before ukrania attacks with western nukes to moscow. so now its the time i think.. who is going to respond to russia for the total destruction The END
Bravo Ucrania….!!!!!
I blame everyone who stuffed the ballot boxes and covered it up for the bloodshed J6, Afghanistan, Ukraine, abortion, Fentanyl, the border and the forced jab.
all this Russian crap will be destroyed
This must be the only drydock facility available to the Russians in the Black Sea; otherwise i cant understand placing your sub within range of Ukranian missilles.
Total nonsense from Russia it was 10 stormshadow missiles used. That would have required 5 to 10 planes and Ukraine only have 6 SU-24 bombers left in their entire airforce!
another bad day in the office for Putin,finger will be on the Sarmat button….
Those submarines submerged into water just as they were designed, except they can only do it once 😂
… Special Effects Operation 😉
How is one ship in drydock "striking the entire black sea fleet" when the actual real fleet is at sea? 😂
drag Putin out of his bunker and get justice 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
That's gotta be embarrassing… but God where pushing it…. if Russia uses a nuke the war is over n millions will die…. is it worth it to do this??
How does Russia's navy get rocked by a country without a navy? 😆😆😢🤣
The war flares up and gradually develops into a world war. Absolutely everyone, especially the United States, must urgently flee from Ukraine.
Beautiful
I still care about the Rover curiosity
This kind of attacks remind me of the scuds Saddam was shooting at Israel in the first Gulf War…the difference is Zelenski got a few better free toys. Is this major attack a turning point in Kiev's offensive?
Good job Ukraine !
Supposedly, they used intel and drones to draw out the fire from the S400 launcher that covered the Sevastopol area (it was located around 60 miles away) and once located, used Storm Shadow to destroy it. It really shaped the shipyard attack. US and British intelligence and tactical strategies are really unmatched.
Last, those Storm Shadows are definitely scary.
Hahaha mini pearl harbor. Good nuke russia!!
How can the Semtiic people in the Ukraine, fight and kill the grandsons, that helped them fight hitler? Wrong priorities. All over Sevastopol, Netanyahu used his last option first, because of active sonar pings in the Western Med – how stupid. American's fight to the last Ukranian, sewing Balkan like memories for the future! President Biden, please make it right!
the human animal is just as primitive and barbaric as ever. . Nothing has changed since day one. Have learned nothing, now the 21 century and still warring over property, resources, territory, food, power, land, race, religion, and the male super ego.
довыпендривался наш ботоксный карлик ))) помокали его в унитаз украинцы – красавы )
