The Russian Black Sea Fleet's losses are mounting amid continued Ukrainian cruise missile and drone attacks, with the newly constructed corvette, Askold, reportedly the latest victim of Kyiv's asymmetric campaign to neutralize Moscow's wounded regional force.
The extent of the damage done to the Askold in last weekend's cruise missile strike is not yet clear, though videos, images and satellite pictures taken at the Zaliv shipyard in Kerch in occupied Crimea suggest it is extensive.

..."The extent of the damage done to the Askold in last weekend's cruise missile strike is not yet clear, though videos, images and satellite pictures taken at the Zaliv shipyard in Kerch in occupied Crimea suggest it is extensive.
The Russian Defense Ministry has not yet offered any details on the strike, and Newsweek has contacted the ministry by email to request comment. On Monday, Ukraine's Office of Strategic Communications reported that the Askold "suffered significant damage and may not be repaired."
The Kalibr cruise missile-armed corvette is at least the 17th Russian vessel to be hit by Ukraine since Moscow began its full-scale invasion in February 2022. Not all of Ukraine's littoral victims have technically been part of the Black Sea Fleet, but all have been in its operational area and cooperating with the fleet.
