Ukrainian attacks from Black Sea thwarted

"Overnight, a group of unmanned surface vessels (USVs) was detected on approach to the Black Sea Fleet base in Sevastopol.
Combat camera footage released by the Russian Defense Ministry showed them being destroyed in the water.
The on-duty fire systems destroyed seven unmanned boats in the Black Sea,” the ministry said, without elaborating.
Meanwhile, a group of Ukrainian commandos tried to land at the tip of the Kinburn Peninsula, overlooking the mouth of the Dnieper.
According to the Russian Defense Ministry, four boats approached the Kinburn Spit, attempting to land a “sabotage and reconnaissance group.” Under covering fire from two of the boats, about a dozen troops stormed the beach. The Ukrainians quickly took casualties from a field of sea mines, however. Those who managed to reach the shore were “eliminated by small-arms fire,” the Russian military said. When they tried to retreat, they lost two boats to artillery and anti-tank missile fire." RT
