Camouflaged ships and fake planes - how Russia's protecting its Black Sea Fleet and airbases
Wednesday, 4 October 2023 Russia's Black Sea Fleet was once considered mighty but with a growing threat from Ukrainian attacks, Moscow has turned to a First World War strategy to protect it.
Abkhasia's leader says he has agreed to allow Moscow to set up a naval base in the Black Sea port of Novorossysk after a series of Ukrainian attacks on Russia's fleet in Sevastopol.
In a significant escalation of hostilities, Ukrainian drones have reportedly targeted Russian vessels in the Sea of Azov, signalling Kyiv's intention to expand its military operations beyond the Black Sea. The move comes amid ongoing conflict initiated by President Vladimir Putin, with Kyiv delivering strategic strikes on ships and infrastructure belonging to Russia's Black Sea Fleet.
