The Russian command was already forced to admit the loss of this ship. However, this is what they say about “damage” to the ship, which supposedly repelled an attack by Ukrainian cruise missiles. The occupiers also gave out a portion of fantasies that the air defense “shot down two Ukrainian Su-24 aircraft that were launching aircraft missiles.” This was reported by the Russian Ministry of Defense.
Powerful explosions in Novocherkassk led to destruction in Feodosia. According to information from local publics, windows in all the houses closest to the port were blown out by the blast wave. The occupiers evacuated more than 350 people living in houses near the port. The area of the fire in the port was more than 1 thousand m.
And the occupation head of Crimea, Aksenov, said that after the attack in Feodosia, a person died and two were injured. According to open sources, the crew of the Novocherkassk ship was 87 people.
The Crimean Wind Telegram channel, with reference to satellite data, reported that German data on December 24 and 25 indicate that another ship was moored next to the Novorossiysk IDK. It is preliminary known that it was a sea tug MB-304 of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. It is currently unknown whether this ship was damaged during the missile attack.
Let us remind you that the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported that at about 2.30 on December 26, Ukrainian tactical aviation attacked the Russian large landing ship Novocherkassk, located in the Feodosia region, with cruise missiles. This ship could transport attack drones of the Shahed type to Crimea.
