Russia has announced the first successful use of a naval drone in the Ukraine war, claiming it sank the Ukrainian reconnaissance ship Simferopol in the Danube Delta. Moscow released dramatic footage of the strike, showing the unmanned vessel ramming into the ship. Kyiv confirmed the attack, reporting one dead, several wounded, and others missing, though most of the crew survived. The Simferopol, Ukraine’s most advanced intelligence ship since 2014, was seen as a naval symbol—its loss delivering a major psychological blow. br br #Russia #Ukraine #Simferopol #NavalDrone #SeaDrone #UkraineWar #Putin #Zelensky #Danube #BlackSeaConflict #WarNews #BreakingNews #NavalWarfare #DroneStrike #MilitaryTechnology #RussianMOD #Kyiv #UkraineNavy #Moscow #PsychologicalBlow #Geopolitics #DefenseNews #DroneWarfare #UnmannedSystems #UkraineConflict #UkraineWarUpdatebr br Also Readbr br Jaishankar Meets Putin in Moscow Amid Global Power Shifts :: br Amid Trump Tariffs, Jaishankar Urges Stronger India-Russia Trade :: br Trump Assures That US Troops Will Not Be Deployed to Defend Ukraine Amid Ongoing Conflict :: br br br ~HT.410~ED.
