Russian missile attack on Ukrainian gunboats fails miserably in Black Sea

Russian missile attack on Ukrainian gunboats fails miserably in Black Sea | A Russian jet attack on Ukrainian gunboats near Snake Island failed miserably. Four boats were operating near an artificial ‘gun tower’ when the attack happened. Drone footage shows a missile narrowly miss the boats and hit the water. A soldier then fires back with an over-the-shoulder rocket launcher. Ukraine’s military intelligence says the missile hit the plane and damaged it. The jet was forced to abandon its attack and return to a nearby airfield, they said. Snake Island is a small but strategic spit of land located in the Black Sea. Russia captured it on the first day of the war, using the warship Moskva. The island’s defenders memorably told the captain ‘Russian warship, go f*** yourself.’ But Ukraine retook the island last year after the Moskva was sunk. The island is used to keep Russian ships and planes away from the coast. #ukraine #ukrainewar #ukrainerussia #dailymail Daily Mail Homepage: Daily Mail Facebook: Daily Mail IG: Daily Mail Snap: Daily Mail Twitter: Daily Mail Pinterest: Get the free Daily Mail mobile app:
