Russian forces destroy Ukrainian naval drones – MOD (VIDEO)
Firearms and UAVs have struck unmanned boats operated by Kiev’s forces, the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said
The Russian Navy has eliminated 23 Ukrainian naval drones in the Black Sea over the past seven days, the Defense Ministry in Moscow said in its daily briefing on Friday.
The ministry released a clip showing incoming unmanned boats being blown up by gunfire and with the use of the Lancet loitering munitions.
Ukraine deployed autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) along with the UAVs during its large-scale drone raid on the coastal cities of Novorossiysk and Tuapse in Russia’s Krasnodar Region on Wednesday. The attack resulted in two people being killed in Novorossiysk and 14 others injured in both cities.
The threat of naval drones also prompted the evacuation of tourists from 180 beaches in the Black Sea resort of Sochi.
