Russian Landing Ship Novocherkassk Damaged In Ukrainian Strike On Crimea

Novocherkassk in Sevastopol in 2015

A missile strike  damaged the Russian landing ship Novocherkassk at its home base in Feodosia, the Russian Defense Ministry confirmed on December 26.

Two Ukrainian Su-24 jets, which launched missiles at the targets, were shot down the defense ministry said in the statement quoted by Russian media. The warplanes were downed by Russian air-defense facilities near the city of Nikolaev.

The head of the Republic of Crimea, Sergey Aksyonov, said in his statement that one person was killed and two others were injured in the attack. Blast waves from explosions damaged windows in nearby buildings. No major damage was caused to civilian infrastructure.

Emergency services revealed that five have been injured so far and that 250 rescue workers were responding to the situation.

The local railroad operator later said that train schedules have been adjusted to allow for repairs at the train station where windows were shattered.

Landing ships are primarily meant for transportation of large military cargoes and amphibious operations. In particular, the Novocherkassk belongs to the Ropucha class and can carry 10 main battle tanks and 340 troops.

There were no details on type of missiles used by the Kyiv regime for the attack, but there are little doubts that NATO-provided missiles were involved.

The attack on Crimea came amid the recent setbacks of Kyiv’s forces around Donetsk city where they lost the key area of Mariinka and is now trying to stop the ongoing Russian advance in Avdiivka.

ship was damaged ? come on – please watch the strike and the obvious result. it wasn t just’damaged’. that immense explosion following the strike on that ship means it detonated. likely it was full of ammunition, mlrs vehiles or tos-vehicles. the ship existence ended – that’s for sure, see: http://alturl.com/6tzh6

the ship was badly damaged in 2022 and was out of action since march of that year. ukraine has lost two su24s costing around $50 mil. and four invaluable crewmembers to damage a ship that was already damaged and posed no threat.

jimbim

another symbolic ukrainian/nat0 stunt, meant for western support.

Cavery

agree completely

Rusty Ruskie

updated info per pro-russian rybar force on x – the 2 afu su24’s were not shot down. russia lost an important ship, with nothing to show for it. in response, putin insists ukraine must continue to receive white glove treatment.

lmao this jew is upvoting his own comments again and downvoting everything else. don’t click on his virus loaded links btw. but he’s probably right about the ship. there’s footage on telegram. the explosion is as big as a nuke. sad to see that there’s no anti air in crimea.

at all: watch the video of the strike & the giant secondary explosion following the strike. the whole ship exploded in a giant fireball. that’s not just ‘damaging’ a ship. so the sf article is again complete propaganda. please stick to the truth. that landing ship novocherkassk is no more. it is toast and gone !! see: http://alturl.com/6tzh6

yawn, that explosion was nothing more spectacular than the dozens of explosions a week on ukrainian assets. you don’t see those as much because 1) ukraine’s running out of assets and 2) biletsky the nazi goon threatened to shoot anyone through the head that uploaded a video. his goon squads do that on a regular basis.

this just speaks to the nature how russia is conducting military operations in the theater and the larger political situation russia keeps expecting ukraine to negotiate which leaves them open to these type of attacks in the donbas and even russia itself

this is a mistake russia should have destroyed every road and link across the dnieper taken odessa while killing every right sector member of the rada and their families time to get serious

in my estimation there’s a 95% chance the war is just following the wef script. there is no strategic benefit to leaving enemy comms and infrastructure intact as russia has done. both sides are just making sure the war keeps going at a certain intensity.

various retired russian generals have also stated that they are perplexed at the smo. and well the reason is simple, neither side is trying to win, just cause a lot of damage and casualties.

it’s called demilitarization bro. it takes a while to grind down the military potential of a country and one should take it slow.

Sunny

no, that’s just called mutual depopulation. if russia was serious they would just win this war. take control of kiev and simply seize all remaining equipment that orcraine has. and russia can win this easily. if they just cut ukraine off from fuel and destroy their comms/infrastructure, they’re done.

Obsolete Stars and Stripes!

yes but then the “international community” would be outraged.

Sunny

correct, the hook nosed community that is. the “bergs” and the “steins” and the “cohens”.

Cosmopolitan

in the end russia will get demilitarized.

Mr. Henkel He

i’ve been thinking the same for a while. notice how none of these conflicts are coming to a definitive end these days. they just drag on and on. iraq. syria. ukraine. everytime there seems like it should be a conclusion to things there is some setback and it just drags on and on. i was starting to think it’s being done to intentionally stress people out. we all seem to have the same common enemy and want to see these evil f**ks defeated decisively, but it keeps going on and on unnaturally.

Erik 1953

with radar, you can see planes going up from very long distances. so, yes, it surprises me too. and then i look at what countries are still injecting their people.

Dick Von D'Astard

how could a ship that wasn’t repaired and not seaworthy from actions earlier on in the conflict suddenly be carrying drones from iran?

russia should test their satellite killing weapons on usa satellites flying over ukkraine. cam use plausible deniability “oops thought it was ukrainian satellite”. anyway any nato country satellite flying over ukraine is used for ukraine targetting, so it is an integral part of ukraine forces.

but that needs courage, something which cannot be bought from amazon.

myslím, že odpoveď bude adekvátna. zase zrejme bude zničený nejaký bunker, kde budú zahraniční žoldnieri. rus im istotne oplatí túto ich láskavosť. všetko chce svoj čas. inak rf by mohla usa odpovedať v sýrii. to by šlo.

pretty well uk and france at war with russia when storm shadows are used. nato target identification + uk/france weapons. maybe the launch platform, the su-24, also provided by a nato country. people of uk and france not aware of the reprisal danger, economic and military, their governments are putting them in, for a border/civil war 1000’s kms way, nothing to do with them.

this shows that nato attacks when and where it wants with its cruise missiles: russia announces the capture of marinka, (in total ruin) and immediately afterwards the harsh revenge of nato.

besides, i watch sadly on a ukronazi channel how their cluster munitions exterminate 30 russian infantrymen with a single shot. meanwhile, russia continues to use world war i-type artillery despite shoigu’s boasts.

russia still survives only to receive more devestating blows.

send more war ships to crimea so that ukraine-us can blow up them too.

two su 24 shot down is a big lie.

FYI

nato believes the ship was hauling drones and made it a high priority target

Mr. Henkel He

why does russia keep docking vessels in an active war zone like that? and from what i’ve heard there was a lot of weapons and or ammunition on board that caused an even greater explosion that a stormshadow would normally be able to cause, which means the ukrainians either got very very lucky, or they clearly had help with intelligence.

this was yet another nato attack, nato/ british french missiles, nato intel and nato personnel supervising, time russia sent a message to nato.

imo this soviet era ship from 1987 was a decoy to get the enemy jets in action and destroyed. similar like the scrapped boats that were sunk in pearl harbour in 1941. rf is in total control and knows it all.
