According to the Russian army, it destroyed the last major warship of the Ukrainian naval forces. The “Yuri Olefirenko” was destroyed in a “highly accurate attack” on a landing stage in the port of Odessa, it is said.
The ship was destroyed on Monday in an attack by the Russian air force, the Russian army reported on Wednesday. The leadership in Kiev has not yet commented on the alleged destruction of the warship.
The Yuri Olefirenko was a medium-sized landing ship of the Ukrainian Navy. From her first entry into service in 1971 until the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation in 2014, she was stationed at the southern naval base of Donuzlav.
