Russia's flagship Black Sea missile cruiser, the Moskva, has sunk by Ukraine's Neptune missiles strike. The 510-crew missile cruiser was a symbol of Russia's military power, leading its naval assault on Ukraine, making it an important symbolic and military target.
The Russian defence ministry said "While being towed... towards the destined port, the vessel lost its balance due to damage sustained in the hull as fire broke out after ammunition exploded. Given the choppy seas, the vessel sank." The fire extinguishing systems on board the forty-year-old warship were out of date and inefficient but several writers agree that the development won't change the course of war.
This must be a significant and humiliating loss for Vladimir Putin. The remaining vessels in Russia's Black Sea fleet will now be more vulnerable to aerial attacks - although it's not clear that Ukraine's depleted forces have the resources to take advantage of this.
Russia will strike against the Ukrainian capital in response to Ukrainian attacks on Russian targets.
Hope never use the atmic bombing. Wish never again to repeat the tragedy.
