As for now, there is only one missile carrier with Kalibrs in the Sea of Azov, and no missile carriers in the Black Sea.

This was stated by Natalia Humeniuk, head of the Joint Coordination Press Center of the Southern Defense Forces of Ukraine, on the air of the 'United News' telethon, a Ukrinform correspondent reported.

"Now the enemy's ship grouping in the Black Sea is 10 units. One missile carrier remains in the Sea of Azov, and based on the fact that it fired two missiles, its equipment may be about eight Kalibr," said Humeniuk.

Answering a question about the relatively calm Independence Day, Humeniuk advised not to relax.

"The enemy conducts attacks not on specific dates, but because they are terrorists. It has already been said that they are likely to keep the tension up, this is also an element of hybrid warfare when tension builds up before a specific date," she emphasized.

Humeniuk emphasized that we should not let our guard down. "We emphasize that the operational situation is changing rapidly and it constantly has elements of threat. And the General Staff does not lower the threat level," she said.
