Russia keeps underwater missile carrier in Black Sea

Natalia Humeniuk, the head of the Joint Press Center of the South Operational Command, said this on the air of the 'United News' telethon, Ukrinform reported.

"We are observing a ship grouping in a somewhat reduced composition - five units in the Black Sea. Among these five units there is one missile carrier. This is a submarine that can carry four Kalibr missiles," said Humeniuk.

She emphasized that whenever this missile carrier is on duty, there is an additional danger, because launches from such a missile carrier can be difficult to detect.

As reported, yesterday there were no Russian missile launchers in the Black and Azov Seas.
