Satellite imagery indicates that the Project 636.3 Improved Kilo-class submarine 'Rostov-na-Donu' has been damaged beyond economical repair i.e. destroyed.

The list has been updated to reflect this change.

Reuters

$2.5m Missile vs $300m Submarine. It's also Russia's first submarine loss to active combat since WW2. It's 1/5 submarines that Russia currently has in the Black Sea. This submarine was reportedly the launcher for the Kalibr missile strike on Vinnytsya last year which killed 20+ civilians.

If the drydock is fucked too then that will be even more important than losing the submarine, it's the biggest drydock in Crimea, they have others but all the way in Russian territory Port of Novorossiysk. But the dry docks in Novorossiysk are floating dry docks, and, by design, they are far less capable of efficient handling of battle damage or major refits.

Hope @elonmusk can also ask the #CCP to open @X to its people. Perhaps he thinks banning it is a good policy, like turning off @Starlink to thwart #Ukraine’s counterstrike against #Russia. Listen up, #Taiwan is not part of the #PRC & certainly not for sale! JW https://t.co/HEhyTYYXFp

Another night, another Ukrainian strike on Crimea. Either an S-400 or S-300 battery hit by 🇺🇦 Neptune missiles after a drone barrage near Yevpatoria. Russian propagandists also acknowledge that Russian patrol ship Vasily Bykov sustained “non-critical” damage from a 🇺🇦 naval drone pic.twitter.com/kJ8MNOZrDa

Another successful use of Neptune anti-ship missiles on ground targets after their modifications, this time on a S-400 or S-300.

NEWS -- @ZelenskyyUa is expected to visit Capitol Hill next week during a trip to the United States.

This comes as Congress wrestles with $24 billion in aid for Ukraine.

MUCH MORE coming........

A great-great-great-grandson of Leo Tolstoy, ladies & gentlemen. The one who a 1.5 years ago dreamed of some Ukrainians “hanging on lampposts” - now contemplating a full-blown genocide.

That’s how the history of “Tolstoy nation” ends. In a full-blown fascism.#StandWithUkraine https://t.co/Jq0kf1WD9r

Interesting from the Russian general and MP Gurulev who took it to Telegram to say that Ukrainians have changed tactics, that they effectively combat minefields, that their drones are endless, and that the Russian counter-battery fire is still ineffective.
