Ukrainian sabotage a Russian warship, but in… Kaliningrad!

It is impressive that Ukraine claims that they have succeeded in carrying out major acts of sabotage Serpukhov corvette, Buyan-M class, But it docked in the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad in the Baltic Sea!

In particular, a video posted on social media by the Ukrainian military intelligence service GUR shows a combustion inside the ship's space, stating that “the ship's telecommunications and automation have been destroyed”, so this will remain inactive for a long time. The 950-ton warship entered service in 2015 and carries up to 8 Caliber missiles.

The Russian enclave of Kaliningrad, between Poland and Lithuania, is a particular point of friction between East and West, as Moscow has installed medium-range missiles there and maintains powerful electronic warfare units that have been interfering in commercial air and sea traffic for months. .

If Ukrainian intelligence can pull off such a strike, it clearly has a huge success factor. But it may also indicate “cooperation” with surrounding NATO countries, which would increase tensions with Russia.
