Ukraine hit yet another ship in Russia's shrinking Black Sea Fleet.
This time it was what the Russian navy calls a "rescue ship" (i.e. a salvage ship) called the Kommuna.
The interesting thing about the Kommuna is that it was originally commissioned on 14 July 1915 – when Tsar Nikolai II was ruling Russia as a near-absolute monarch during World War I. Russia again has a near-absolute leader during another catastrophic war. 🤔
It tells us something about the state of the Russian military that they were still using in active service a ship that is essentially a museum piece. We already have seen them using tanks in Ukraine that date back to the Nikita Khrushchev era. People in the West who run around with their hair on fire worrying about Russia's alleged strength are not looking closely at the reality of this strength.
The Kommuna was damaged at Russian-occupied Sevastopol by a Neptune (Нептун Р-360) missile which was manufactured by Ukraine.
Dmytro Pletenchuk, a spokesperson for Ukraine's Navy, told the Liga media outlet on April 21 that the navy had struck a ship in occupied Sevastopol and confirmed that it was the Kommuna, a salvage ship. The extent of the damage to the ship is unclear at the time of this publication.
Earlier in the day, the Russian proxy official Mikhail Razvozhayev claimed an anti-ship missile had been "repelled" in occupied Sevastopol and that "fragments caused a small fire, which was quickly extinguished.
Unverified video posted to social media appeared to show a Russian naval vessel on fire and local media reported the Crimea bridge had been closed.
The Kommuna was launched in 1915 and is the oldest ship still in service in the Russian Navy.
Sevastopol is home to Russia’s Black Sea Fleet and is frequently targeted by Ukrainian missile and sea drone strikes.
Pletenchuk said on March 30 that Russia had withdrawn nearly all its major ships from ports in occupied Crimea following successful Ukrainian strikes.
To prevent further Ukrainian drone strikes on the Black Sea fleet, Russian forces in occupied Crimea are constructing barriers at the entrance to Sevastopol Bay, the partisan group Atesh reported on March 27.
Минув другий місяць на ротації. Перестав думати про Перемогу і живеться набагато легше 😅 думки на рівні інфузорії туфельки: прокинутися, зробити зарядку, поїсти, виконати службові задачі, перевірити наряд, знову поїсти, щось повчити нового, знову поїсти. Дивися і день минув.
Від одноманітності рятують хіба цікавинки, з якими працюєш завдяки специфіці служби і роду військ.
До дому дуже хочеться. Трохи заєбли всі ці тіпи в пікселі 😅 але, це мабуть нюанси служби на ротації. Коли другий місяць бачиш майже одних і тих самих людей. Така собі експедиція десь в сраку, коли життя і служба в обмежених умовах та просторі.
А, ще сексу сильно хочеться 😅 добре що є старлінк і час від часу, як зараз, на чергуванні лишатися на 24 години сам на одинці зі своїм АКС 😂 в прямому і переносному сенсі, бгг
Читаю літературу для служби... І паралельно для розваги класичне фентезі. Зараз це – "Чарівник із Земномор'я" Урсули ле Гуїн (послідовниця Толкіна). Бо в цих історіях є ельфи, дракони різні, магія, та головне впевненість в справедливість, що Добро, рано чи пізно, переможе Зло. Впевненість, якої не вистачає в нашій цинічній реальності...
I cannot fully imagine life under occupation. And life under occupation by russia...
It is beyond imagination how people felt during those long months of occupation, how they fought for their freedom.
One can hardly imagine the entire scale of heroism of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and the efforts of all the people involved in making our Victory come closer.
Glory to Ukraine! Glory to Heroes! Glory to the Armed Forces of Ukraine!
These are soldiers from the Bakhmut direction - 8 officers and 98 soldiers and sergeants.
«They fought for Bakhmut and performed a feat that prevented the enemy from advancing further into our East. Each of them is a hero of our state.
Among those who are being returned from captivity, many were considered missing. The relatives of these people went through a difficult stage,» - the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine.

это ВОЙНА, а не «спецоперация»!
Нам не нужен такой русский мир, нас не нужно освобождать! Это геноцид, тысячи погибших мирных жителей, убитые дети, разрушенные дома! Это разрушенные судьбы, уничтоженная психика и люди которые никогда больше не смогут вернуться к прежней жизни.
