Destroying the enemy's potential is absolutely legal in times of war.

Natalia Humeniuk, the head of the Joint Press Center of the Operational Command South, said this on the air of the telethon 'United News', commenting on the attack on the Russian landing ship 'Olenegorskiy Gornyak' in Novorossiysk, according to Ukrinform.

"We have open information that it is really damaged, which means that one of the combat units - a large landing ship of the Black Sea Fleet - is out of commission. At this stage, we can state the fact that all the systems, services and capacities of Ukraine are working to weaken the enemy. We are dealing with a very dangerous, well-prepared and heavy enemy in terms of weapons, even manpower, so it is absolutely legal to destroy the enemy's potential in a time of war," emphasized Humeniuk.
