Dmytro Pletenchuk: Most of the liberated maritime areas remain a "gray" zone

The majority of the maritime areas that have been liberated from Russian presence currently remain a "gray" zone. This was reported by Ukrainian Navy spokesperson Captain Third Rank Dmytro Pletenchuk during the nationwide telethon United News.

"Most of the liberated maritime areas from Russian presence, unfortunately, remain a 'gray' zone for now. This is due to the lack of naval and boat components, but aviation continues to operate, and, for example, Russian aviation still dominates the skies over the western and southern coasts of Crimea," said Pletenchuk.

According to him, there is ongoing activity of enemy aviation in the northern and southern parts of Crimea. Russian aviation also constantly conducts reconnaissance over the Black Sea.

"They periodically enter the Black Sea mostly with submarines. This trend has been ongoing for months. Essentially, one submarine goes out, and another replaces it, not only demonstrating their presence but also guarding their base," added the Navy spokesperson.

He noted that the Russians do not risk using surface ships for base protection. Additionally, inter-base enemy movements do not occur.

"The last movement was when they left the Sea of Azov after realizing it was a dangerous area, which we confirmed again yesterday as being under our fire control. They quickly returned to their base. Similar exits from Crimea happened after several accurate hits," summarized Pletenchuk.
