Russia has withdrawn all patrol ships of its Black Sea Fleet from the occupied Crimea.

The last patrol ship is currently leaving the region, as announced by Ukrainian Navy spokesperson Dmytro Pletenchiuk, in his Facebook post.

"The last patrol ship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet is just now leaving our Crimea," he wrote.

Reminder, Ukraine, which lacks large military ships in its arsenal, used explosive-laden unmanned military boats for attacks on Russian vessels and also struck fleet and other military targets in Crimea using Storm Shadow and ATACM missiles.

Vice Admiral Oleksiy Neizhpapa, Commander of the Ukrainian Navy, stated that the Russian Black Sea Fleet was forced to relocate almost all of its combat-ready ships from occupied Crimea to other locations.

Ukraine destroyed or damaged 27 military ships, including five eliminated due to sea mine explosions, Neizhpapa reported.
