Russian warships do not enter Black Sea for about a week

Russian troops have not taken their warships into the waters of the Black Sea for almost a week. The occupiers took a "break" after the loss of the Sergey Kotov patrol ship.

This is evidenced by the summaries of the Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which are published daily by the department on social networks.

According to the information of the Navy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the last time the warships of the occupiers went to sea was March 3.

The next day, the ship "Sergey Kotov" was in the sea, which sank as a result of a night attack by Ukrainian naval drones.

In the following days, the department published information according to which no russian warships were recorded in the Black Sea.

Whether such a break is connected with the loss of the patrol ship "Sergey Kotov" by the occupiers, or whether it is due to other reasons, is unknown.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, on the night of March 4-5, a patrol ship of project 22160 named "Sergey Kotov" was destroyed in the Kerch Strait.

The occupiers' ship was sunk as a result of an attack by Ukrainian Magura V5 naval drones. Having received three damages, "Sergey Kotov" sank.

We will remind, on February 14 of this year in the Black Sea near the city of Alupka, the big landing ship "Tsezar Kunikov" was sunk.

And on the night of February 1, the Ukrainian military sank the missile ship "Ivanovets", the cost of which is about USD 60 million.
