New satellite photos were published by OSINT researcher MT Anderson on the social network Twitter (X).
As can be seen in the photographs, the Russians withdrew the hull of the large landing ship (MDK) Minsk. At the same time, the diesel-electric submarine Rostov-on-Don continues to remain in dry dock.
See the dry docks around Sevastopol in ultra-high definition. The dismantled Minsk left the dry dock and was moored north of it. “Rostov-on-Don” is still in dry dock, wrote the OSINT researcher.
Only the hull remained of the VDK, since the superstructure was destroyed as a result of a missile attack and subsequent fire inside the ship. The photographs do not show whether the Russians are trying to repair what is left of the Minsk landing ship. The condition of the VDK building after the fire is also unknown. At the same time, the occupiers are trying to repair their Project 636.3 Varshavyanka diesel-electric submarine Rostov-on-Don, which carries Caliber cruise missiles. It remains in dry dock.
Let us remind you that on the night of September 13, the Ukrainian Armed Forces launched a missile attack on a shipyard in occupied Sevastopol, where the ship “Minsk” and the submarine “Rostov-on-Don” were located.
