Ukraine attacked and destroyed the Russian warship Caesar Kunikov in the Black Sea.
An official, who was not authorized to speak officially, told CNN that the operation was carried out on the Russian amphibious assault ship "Caesar Kunikov" by the Military Intelligence of Ukraine (GUR) as part of a joint operation.
MAGURA drones were involved in the attack and the ship was damaged beyond repair, according to the official, who claimed it sank in the Black Sea.
GUR published a video of the attack, which shows how the "Cesar Kunikov" was attacked by the drones, and after a series of explosions, it began to sink.
Ukraine has carried out a series of attacks on Russian warships in the Black Sea, including the sinking of the guided-missile ship Ivanovets earlier this month and most notably the sinking of the Black Sea Fleet flagship Moskva in April 2022.
The MAGURAs are only a few meters long and are powered by jet skis, a special forces pilot at Ukraine's Defense Intelligence Agency told CNN earlier this year.
But they have a long range of about 800 kilometers, so military units can launch drones from large parts of Ukraine's coast for missions against targets in Crimea. /BGNES
