Ukraine's Drones Sink Russian Warship in Crimea

An Israeli military tactical drone operator launches a drone near the Gaza border

Ukraine's use of drones as a strategic weapon against Russia is gaining attention after a rare interview with a secretive Ukrainian unit. The interview revealed that six sea drones, powered by jet skis, were able to sink a Russian guided missile ship, the Ivanovets, on the Russian-occupied Crimean Peninsula. The drones, known as 'MAGURA,' have a range of approximately 800 kilometers and can be launched from various locations along Ukraine's coastline.

According to Ukraine's Defense Intelligence, the attack on the Ivanovets marked another embarrassing loss for Russia's Black Sea fleet. While the claim has not been independently verified, videos released by Ukraine's defense intelligence agency show what appears to be the sinking of the Russian warship.
