Despite that information from Eastern and Western sources is a bit contradictory, it seems that the Flagship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet has sunk. Also, according to some Ukrainian sources, only a small portion of its crew, about 58 soldiers from 510 survived. As reported, they were rescued by a ship from a foreign country and even a NATO country or Turkey, not the Russia itself. I don’t know, if that was a civilian or a military ship.

Russian military ship, go where was told for you to go - In honor of Snake Island, which captured occupants. (source: internet) |
As far as I know, two Russian warships have attacked the Snake Island of Ukraine and both are now either sunk or unusable. It was the flagship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet "Moskva" and the Russian patrol boat "Vasily Bykov". Both of them in one or another way already ended their 'military career'. And what is interesting that the rocket cruiser "Moskva" caught fire somewhere just 20 miles away from this island. So symbolic.
Moskva, the flagship of Russia's Black Sea fleet, has sunk with Ukraine saying it was hit in a missile strike. Moscow claims it went down in ‘stormy seas’ after a fire on board https://t.co/kixMhSEfFY https://t.co/kixMhSEfFY

Kremlin deny that their flagship was hit with two Ukrainian made cruise missiles "Neptun" (eng. Neptune), how they try to avoid to loose their power house face against Ukraine, recognizing that their flagship was defeated, what regarding military tradition means the defeat of whole flagship's fleet, with so symbolic name as "Moskva" (eng. Moscow), what would mean a large Ukrainian political victory against the Russia.
On the other hand, if they do not acknowledge this fact, they cannot take revenge for it, carry out a response, at least officially.
And it also shows the weakness of their forces, as mission of the specific rocket cruiser, without military headquarters or flagship function, was to defend the rest of the fleet from airstrikes and missile attacks, where it failed his duties and was not able even to defend itself, what to talk about the rest of the fleet.
Pathetic #Putin having a Stalinist tantrum over the sinking of #Moskva gets his thugs to arrest Admiral #igorosipov

Meanwhile, according to some sources, the commander of the Black Sea Fleet has already been arrested in Russia.

Interestingly, a day ago, Moscow threatened to attack decision-making centers in Ukraine, and now their decision-making center, the Flagship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, possible to say that Headquarters on the water, just sunk.
The next time they should be more careful about what they are going to do or say. It also demonstrates that the decisions made by the Kremlin are not well weighed or thought out, that they are making decisions out of hot, which demonstrates the weakness of their leadership.

The war continues, Ukraine is slowly chewing on its enemies, and this is probably the best tactics, to gradually destroy them, rather than a direct large-scale attack that could lead to more casualties.

At the same time, people are disappearing in Belarus without any known legal charges being brought against them. Lukashenko probably doesn't think the law applies to him either.

Also in Russia, the last people with a conscience are being arrested. Like this man. He was arrested because he had with him the book of Leo Tolstoy - War and Peace. Respect for him!
