A massive Russian warship was reportedly struck by Ukrainian missiles earlier today in what has been described as "another failure of the Russian fleet". The Admiral Makarov was believed to be ablaze after the strike in the Black Sea.
Reports suggest it was close to Snake Island and a rescue operation was deployed involving aircraft and boats. Writing on Telegram, Ukrainian MP Oleksiy Goncharenko said the ship had been hit by his country's neptune missiles, reports the Mirror.
He said: "There is new information about another failure of the Russian fleet near our shores. Unofficial Russian sources report that the newest missile frigate Admiral Makarov is in trouble.

Well, that ship certainly isn’t “massive” at 4000 tons.
A second ship hit while in the vicinity of Snake Island.... Should start a rumor that the Ukes have eyes on that island. Let the Russian garrison turn upon itself in suspicion.
Only four times larger than the biggest 50-gun galleons in the Spanish Armada.
“Massive” is relative to what remains.
Soon to be “massive” row boats.
I hope.
Should we tell Putin:
It’s never a good thing to have to utilize your assets’ longest offensive range while still inside your opponent’s optimal defensive range???
The newest massive coral reef fish habitat.
I’m starting to think a band of Somali pirates could take down the Russian navy. They don’t seem to be very observant.
Andrei, you’ve lost another ship….
Made of aluminum?........................
Note to self....Do not board any Russian ships that have names starting with “M”.
Putin must have suppressed any competitors more effectively than a newly hatched queen bee. It’s a little amazing that this much incompetence and stupidity have not led to his overthrow yet.
It’s a frigate. They are about the combatant warships you can have.
From Big to small: Carrier > Cruiser > Destroyer > Frigate.
This leaves out some of the other large deck ships like the LHD class helo ships, but you get the point.
Certainly removes any doubt about the report...
No one believes this BS anymore
You’re right. Russia hasn’t lost any ships in this stupid war. It’s all globalist lies!
