ukrainian strike on one of its ships here? reporter: yeah, russia is suggesting the attack was repelled, but russian bloggers are talk about how one compartment of the amphibious assault ship was indeed flooded by this blast. another analyst calling this attack by ukraine a quantum leap. as you ve heard before when it comes to ukraine attacking mainland russia itself there s a fw bid to make this more opaque, with ukrainian officials saying this is the result of an unidentified floating object. a bid to make a pun. a ukrainian security official said yes, this was the ukrainian security services and yes, they hit a large naval ship, suggesting perhaps as many as 100 russian personnel could have been on board when this happened, and significant damage would have been caused by just short of a half of metric ton of tnt driving into this ship.
