Ukrainian officials on Monday claimed their forces sank two Russian naval boats with drone strikes in the Black Sea.
In social media posts, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense said the Russian ships were Raptor-class assault boats and were struck near Snake Island, an island that was captured by Russian forces early on in the war and is located about 70 nautical miles from Odesa in the Black Sea. The agency released footage, dated May 2, that purported to show the strikes.
