Russia kept 12 warships in the Black Sea and one more in the Sea of Azov as of the morning of Sunday, July 30.
Nataliia Humeniuk, spokesperson for Ukraine’s southern military command, said this on national television, Ukrinform reports.
She said that a storm in the Black Sea is subsiding, and this allows the Russian army once again to deploy its warships that are mainly aimed at collecting intelligence.
“Also, we see that the deployment of the naval group is taking place without missile carriers, they are still at their bases. But tactical aircraft were active over the Black Sea in the last 24 hours, and this is another way the enemy can show their dominance. They again made a sortie towards Snake Island and tried to bombard it. The detonation of two aerial bombs of unknown origin was recorded,” she said.
