Earlier it was reported that the submerged flagship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, the cruiser Moskva, provided air cover for the entire Kherson group of occupation forces, said Oleksiy Arestovich, adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine.

For Ukraine, the loss of a cruiser by Russia is a good sign - this will ease the situation of Ukrainian aviation in the southern direction.

Recall that the Russian cruiser Moskva, which Ukrainian defenders attacked on Wednesday, April 13, became the most expensive military loss of the Russian Federation in the war with Ukraine.
