MOSCOW, Aug 22 (Reuters) – Russia’s defence ministry said on Tuesday its forces had actually destroyed a U.S.-made military speedboat near Snake Island in the Black Sea.
Reuters might not right away confirm the report.
Tiny Snake Island ended up being associated with Ukrainian resistance in the very first hours of what Russia calls its “unique military operation” on Feb. 24, 2022, when Russian officers on the Black Sea Fleet flagship Moskva radioed Ukrainian guards stationed there and purchased them to give up or pass away.
