The Ukrainian Navy revealed the details of the operation that destroyed a Russian submarine in Novorossiysk. According to Navy spokesman Dmytro Pletenchuk, the operation was successful due to multi-level planning and careful development of the means of destruction. Pletenchuk explained that navigation difficulties during the off season complicate ships' departure from the base. As a result of the attack on the submarine, Russia lost its second submarine. This operation was the first to utilize underwater drones 'Sub Sea Baby'.
As a result of the successful operation in Novorossiysk, the loss of the Russian submarine became the second in their history. The use of underwater drones in the attack on the enemy submarine is an innovative step in the development of naval operations. The loss of the second submarine indicates the growing effectiveness of the Ukrainian defense in the Black Sea.
