The Russian navy appears to have accidentally blown up one of its own ships in the black sea in the latest blunder for Putin s forces. A landing craft is reported to have exploded when it hit a Russian sea mine.
Russia yesterday admitted that it has given up trying to hold Snake Island in the face of withering Ukrainian artillery fire, the latest in a long line of humiliating battlefield defeats for Putin s armed forces.
A fire and subsequent munitions blast seriously damaged the guided-missile cruiser Moskva, causing the crew to evacuate, the Russian news agency Tass said.
