"Ukrainian Forces Deal Major Blows to Russian Black Sea Fleet and Enemy Drones"

Ukraine claims to have inflicted significant damage on Russia's Black Sea Fleet, including the destruction of a missile ship and other vessels, as part of a months-long campaign. The fleet has reportedly suffered around 25 losses out of its initial 80 vessels, with an additional 15 under repair. This comes after Russia refused to renew a U.N.-brokered grain deal, leading Ukraine to retaliate and ensure the trade of vital grains. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy declared that the fleet is no longer capable of operating in the western part of the Black Sea, while Russia plans to build a new naval base in a breakaway region of Georgia.
