Ukraine has claimed a major attack in the ongoing war with Russia. Ukraine claims that many Russian soldiers have been killed in one of its missile attacks. So far, there has been no response from Russia on this.
New Delhi: Ukraine has made a big claim about Russia. Ukraine's Special Forces have said that they have attacked Russia's Black Sea Fleet. Commander Admiral Viktor Sokolov and 33 other soldiers have died in this attack. Ukraine has said that it was a missile attack that took place recently on the Crimean port of Sevastopol. This attack was carried out on the headquarters of the Black Sea Fleet. Russian officials said on Monday that the air defense system had foiled Ukraine's missile attack on Sevastopol in the Crimean peninsula. Apart from the claims of the officials, the statement coming from Ukraine is surprising.
Ukraine's big claim
Russia's air defense system shot down a missile near Belbek air base. Moscow-appointed governor of Sevastopol Mikhail Razvozhayev said this on the Telegram messaging app. Earlier, Ukraine's Special Forces had said that the target of the attack on the Black Sea Fleet headquarters in Sevastopol on Friday were the soldiers attending the Russian Navy meeting. Special Forces said, 'After the attack on the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, 34 officers, including the fleet commander, were killed. The remaining 105 soldiers were injured. The headquarters building has also been destroyed in this. Ukraine's big claim

what is the whole matter
Sokolov was not named in the report. But Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to Ukraine's interior minister, posted the admiral's name and a photo on social media. Russia's defense ministry has not yet responded to Sokolov's killing. After the attack on Friday, Russia said one person was missing. According to the US-based think tank Institute for the Study of War (ISW), Russia and Ukraine have often exaggerated enemy losses. Both countries rarely comment on their own losses.
What will be its effect
The think tank says that if Ukraine's claim was false, it would have been easy for Russia to refute it. According to the think tank, it has not yet confirmed from its side that Sokolov or any other high-ranking Russian commander has died in these Ukrainian attacks. However, the Russian command is easily able to refute Ukrainian reporting. The think tank said that the death of Sokolov and the rest of the Russian officers would weaken the command and control in the Russian Black Sea Fleet.
