Ukrainian Bomb Boats Inflict Destruction On Russian Vessels In Crimea
Published 5 months ago
Footage released by the Ukrainian Defense Intelligence (GUR) agency shows unmanned surface vessel (USV) attacks being carried out against Russian watercraft in the vicinity of Crimea's northwestern port city of Chornomorske on May 30, 2024.
The bomb boat POV footage shows the vessels are under heavy fire as they approach their targets. At one point a Russian Hind gunship can be seen strafing the Ukrainian kamikaze watercraft. According to Ukrainian sources, as many as seven Russian vessels were hit today including; one pilot boat (Dream), two ferries (Avangard and Conroe Trader), and four transport landing boats KS-701 (Tuna). However, it is believed that some of those craft were damaged during a near simultaneous Ukrainian missile attack against the Kerch Bridge.
