Two Russian warships equipped with Kalibr cruise missiles were spotted in the Black Sea this morning, according to the Ukrainian Naval Forces.

The military specified that the total salvo of this ship grouping in the Black Sea region could amount to up to 8 missiles.

Meanwhile, there are no ships from the aggressor country in the Sea of Azov, as has been the case for several days.

Additionally, the Ukrainian Navy reported that one Russian ship in the Mediterranean Sea is not equipped with Kalibr missiles.

The report also says that within the past day, the Kerch Strait has seen the following traffic in Russia's interest:

  • To the Black Sea: 8 vessels, with 1 continuing towards the Bosphorus Strait.
  • To the Sea of Azov: 9 vessels, with 2 arriving from the Bosphorus Strait.

Previously, Ukrainian Navy spokesman Dmytro Pletenchuk discussed changes in Russian tactics in the Black and Azov Seas. According to him, the occupiers now rely on submarines instead of surface ships.

Additionally, on the evening of July 24, a Ukrainian Navy representative said there were no longer any Russian warships in the Sea of Azov, suggesting that the enemy might have started suspecting something.
