Pletenchuk: Enemy missile carrier leaves Novorossiysk, threat of cruise missiles use

Ukrinform
One of the enemy's missile carriers has launched an external raid from Novorossiysk, so there is a danger of using cruise missiles.

According to Ukrinform, this was reported by Captain Dmytro Pletenchuk, a spokesman for the Ukrainian Navy, on the air of the United News telethon.

“The situation remains unchanged. The only thing that slightly differs is that yesterday one of the frigates carrying cruise missiles left the Novorossiysk home port, returned, and today one of the carriers also went on an external raid. So, we can assume that there is a danger of use. Sometimes they went out for just an hour to use them. We are monitoring the situation. Otherwise, there were no ships in the Black Sea for a week,” Pletenchuk said.
