Details: Yevhenii Khmara, acting Head of the Security Service of Ukraine, reported the destruction of the Kalibr carrier to the president. The strike was a joint operation by the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Special Operations Forces, Defence Intelligence of Ukraine and border guards.
Quote: "The Karakurt-class missile ship was hit, along with a patrol boat and another tanker from the shadow oil fleet.
Significant damage was also inflicted on the infrastructure of the oil terminal port. Each such result further limits Russia's war potential.
I have also approved additional, entirely justified responses by the Security Service of Ukraine to Russian strikes on our cities and villages."
Background: Prior to this, Zelenskyy released a video showing strikes on two vessels belonging to Russia's shadow oil fleet near the port of Novorossiysk in Russia's Krasnodar Krai.
