Russia deploys three missile carriers off Crimea coast with total salvo of 16 Kalibrs

The enemy has increased the number of missile carriers in the Black Sea to three submarines and one surface carrier.

That’s according to Natalia Humeniuk, the head of the joint press center of Operational Command South, who spoke at the national telethon, Ukrinform reports.

"The enemy is increasing its presence in the Black Sea. This night we saw that submarines carrying eight Kalibrs were on combat duty but in the morning the enemy added another surface missile carrier. That is, the naval group has been increased to nine units, including three missile carriers remaining on combat duty. The total salvo can reach 16 Kalibrs,” Humeniuk reported.

She emphasized that the missile threat level remains “extremely high.”

As Ukrinform reported earlier, Russia kept eight warships in the Black Sea on Friday, including a submarine missile carrier with four Kalibrs on board.
