Russian ships repel Ukraine attack near Crimea
Russia said on Friday morning that it had fended off an attack from Ukraine in the Black Sea near the Russian-occupied Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea.
Two Russian warships repelled an attack from an unmanned boat that the Russian Defense Ministry said was Ukrainian.
The warships, the Pytlivy and the Vasili Bykov, fired at the boat, destroying it, according to the ministry.
Russia quickly took control of the Black Sea after launching its full-scale invasion in February of last year, but its navy has come under attack numerous times.
