Russia’s Defense Ministry says its forces have carried out a new round of strikes targeting Ukrainian port and shipping assets. According to Moscow, the attacks hit three vessels said to be transporting military cargo for Ukraine.
The ministry also said Russian forces bombed port infrastructure, including a warehouse that it described as being used to store military hardware. The claim was presented as part of Russia’s effort to disrupt supplies linked to Kiev’s war effort.
The reported strikes point to continued pressure on Ukraine’s maritime logistics network, where ports, storage facilities and commercial shipping remain sensitive targets during the conflict. Shipping routes and port operations have been a recurring focus because of their role in moving goods and equipment.
The details in Moscow’s statement could not be independently verified from the information provided. Still, the announcement underscores the ongoing importance of Black Sea and port infrastructure in the wider Russia-Ukraine war.
