Attached: 1 video ⚡️🔥The GUR released footage from a naval drone attack on Russian Project 775 Ropucha-I-class large landing ship Ceasar Kunikov near the shores of occupied Crimea. Magura V5 naval drones inflicted critical damage on the left side of the ship after which it began to sink.mstdn.social

Nice! Already added to Wikipedia, lol. Russia hasn't lost this many warships in a single campaign since Tsushima.
Sinking of Tsezar Kunikov leaves Russian Black Sea Fleet with only 5 serviceable ships, down from 13
After the destruction of the large Russian landing ship Tsezar Kunikov, only 5 of the 13 ships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet remain in service.

Why the heck are the Russians sailing these important landing ships off Crimea without any escorts, small patrol craft or drones overhead? It looks like the Kunikov is just sitting there.

Let them continue this behaviour - more targets for the Ukrainians to sink. I was under the impression that the ship may have been anchored or the vid starts when its engines were already disabled by prior hits.Nice! Already added to Wikipedia, lol.

"Russia claims that six Ukrainian drones were destroyed during the attack on the Caesar Kunikov..."
Of course they were - the Kunikov valiantly destroyed them all!

Well I'm glad the Kunikov was able to find and destroy all those pesky drones!

The vast majority of the Ukraine armed forces are still equipped with very similar equipment as the Russian forces. The exception is probably its artillery, however you can have the largest technical advantage in the world, but without ammunition, it counts for nothing.

I like this graphic... low rez and all.

Image of all the warships in the Russian Black Sea Fleet battle updated to show the Caesar Kunikov (far left, fourth from bottom) newly sunk. Ships shaded yellow are in long-term maintenance. Since Russia's Feb. 24, 2022 invasion of Ukraine the Kremlin has lost roughly half of its operational warships and was forced out of its main naval base in Sevastopol.
Ukrainian Naval Victory: Robot Drones Blast, Sink Major Russian Warship
The 4,000-ton amphibious assault ship went down offshore next to a densely populated seaside resort. It was the fifth Russian warship – of that type – sunk by Kyiv.

Perhaps but it has a line in more then a few... lets say... "operations" in the West. Knowing were what is and by who is an advantage.
It saves masses amounts of munitions.
Its like Bleechy Park all over again. I am sure.
Russians will communicate on lesser levels with stuff that has been compromised years and years ago. Taking out those ships isnt luck.

If the Russians are going to anchor their important vessels at sea, I'd love to see the Ukrainians board and capture a Russian landing ship.
It would be karma for Russian piracy in 2014 https://www.reuters.com/news/picture/russia-seizes-ukrainian-naval-ships-idUSRTS27SIS/

"Caesar Kunikov" was sunk by five Magura V5 drones operated (most probably) by Group 13 of GUR.
