Defence Intelligence: The Russian fleet no longer seems so invulnerable

"After the attacks on the landing ship 'Olenohirskiy Hirnyk' and the tanker SIG in the Black Sea, the Russian fleet no longer seems so invulnerable," stated Andriy Yusov, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, during a televised marathon.

"Measures are being taken that are direct consequences of the invasion and occupation of the aggressors in Ukraine. What they thought would work in their favor, namely their fleet, now does not appear as invulnerable to other smaller but more modern means. Therefore, the occupiers cannot feel safe in all territories," Yusov said.

He added that it will be problematic for Russia to restore the landing ship 'Olenohirskiy Hirnyk,' which was attacked by drones in the Novorossiysk bay.

"The construction was not done on the territory of modern Russia, and the damage there is very significant. And, of course, we won't see this 'Olenohirskiy Hirnyk' in the nearest future," emphasized the representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate.
