“The Ukrainian Security Service successfully carried out another unique operation and launched a naval attack on the port of Novorossiysk,” said a statement from the SBU on Telegram, quoted by Al Jazeera.
The SBU said the submarine was “carrying four Kalibr cruise missile launchers” used to bombard Ukrainian territory.
“(The submarine suffered) extensive damage and is effectively no longer operational,” the SBU added.
There has been no comment from Russia on Ukraine’s claims so far.
Ukraine issued this statement amidst diplomatic efforts by officials from the United States, European countries and Ukraine who were holding a meeting in Berlin, Germany.The meeting was held again to discuss US plans to end the war between Russia and Ukraine.
Ukraine appears to want to show that it still has the capability to attack Russia while rejecting US President Donald Trump’s opinion that Kyiv has “no cards” in the negotiations.
Kyiv has stepped up naval attacks on ships it considers linked to Russia.Ukraine also continues to carry out attacks on Moscow’s energy and military infrastructure.
Likewise, Russia says it has stepped up attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure in recent weeks and continues to claim progress on its front lines in eastern Ukraine.
