Quote: "The operation was made possible with the support of the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine and the United24 platform.

The enemy vessel was on the roadstead of Lake Donuzlav in temporarily occupied Crimea.

As a result of a number of direct strikes to the hull, the Russian vessel sustained critical damage causing immobilisation – it heaved aft and sank."

Details: DIU noted that the value of the vessel lost is approximately US$60-70 million.

According to early reports, the search and rescue operation of the Russian occupiers in Donuzlav was unsuccessful.
