Re: Ukraine war thread
In the Azov Sea the Russian cargo vessel "Volgo-Balt" sank. The Russian ship was involved in transporting stolen goods such as Ukrainian wheat. From what we know so far is that one crew members drowned, another one is missing, while 9 made it in a lifeboat to the coast of the Russian-occupied Kherson region, Ukraine.
The circumstances of the sinking are not entirely clear. Some Russian channels claimed that it was sunk by a drone, which would be another successful implementation of Ukrainian sanctions on Russian shipping.
