Three missile carriers with 24 Kalibr-type cruise missiles on board have joined Russia’s naval group in the Black Sea.

The relevant statement was made by Ukraine’s Southern Defense Forces on Telegram, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“Three surface missile carriers – two frigates and one small-size missile ship – have entered combat duty in the Black Sea. A total of 24 Kalibr-type missiles are ready to be launched,” the report states.
