In a notable military development, Russia has deployed three submarines carrying cruise missiles simultaneously in the Azov-Black Sea region, marking the first time such a maneuver has occurred, according to Ukrainian Navy spokesperson Captain Dmytro Pletenchuk. This deployment follows the recent withdrawal of Russian warships from the Sea of Azov, suggesting a potential large-scale attack on Ukraine may be imminent. Pletenchuk emphasized the significance of this action, stating that the Black Sea Fleet is now correctly referred to as a submarine fleet. The Ukrainian Navy has recently intensified its operations, achieving successful strikes on Russian assets, including damaging a ferry used for military transport in Russia's Krasnodar region. The presence of these submarines, which are capable of launching Kalibr cruise missiles, raises concerns about increased military tensions in the region.
