Russia targeted three ships in their attack today.
While the crew of ANT (IMO: 9412311) sustained injuries requiring care, all three ships had fires and damage on board. ⬇️
Russia has carried out another attack on civilian shipping in the Black Sea.
During the evening and night, enemy UAVs attacked three foreign merchant ships moving along the sea corridor.
As a result of the hits on board the ships, fires broke out, which were extinguished by the crews.
On a ship flying the Vanuatu flag, two crew members suffered minor injuries - they were provided with the necessary assistance. The ship itself was towed for repairs.
Despite constant russian attacks, Ukraine maintains the operation of the sea corridor, and ports and crews continue to ensure the movement of cargo and global food security.
USF Struck a Svetlyak-Class Patrol Ship, a Pantsir-S1 Air Defense System, an RSBN-4N Navigation System, Logistics Assets, and Other Enemy Targets
Operation highlights:
🎯 In temporarily occupied Crimea, operators of the @1usc_army struck a Project 10410 Svetlyak-class border patrol ship used for coastal patrol and maritime surveillance missions.
• In Kherson Oblast, operators of the @1usc_army destroyed a Pantsir-S1 air defense missile and gun system, one of the key components of the enemy's air defense network.
• In temporarily occupied Crimea, operators of the @1usc_army struck an RSBN-4N short-range radio navigation system used to support enemy aviation.
• In temporarily occupied Crimea, operators of the @Raid_413 struck locomotives used to sustain enemy military logistics.
• In Donetsk Oblast, operators of the @k_2army Brigade struck transformers supporting enemy military infrastructure.
• Also in Donetsk Oblast, operators of the 1st Separate Center struck fuel storage tankers.
The operations were conducted in coordination with the USF Deep Strike Center.
The Unmanned Systems Forces continue to systematically degrade the enemy’s combat capabilities by targeting air defense assets, logistics infrastructure, and critical command-and-control systems.
USF: One step ahead!

NEW: MI5 and Five Eyes partner agencies have just issued what they say is an unprecedented joint warning about attempts by Chinese spies to use LinkedIn to recruit Western assets
Vantor collected new imagery showing the aftermath of the Ukrainian drone attacks on an oil terminal in St. Petersburg, Russia as well as the damaged Steregushchy-class corvette Boikiy in a naval dry dock at Kronstadt, Russia.
In Kronstadt, you can see fire crews working to control the fires onboard the ship with high-pressure water cannons.

A rare occurrence: even the low-resolution Sentinel satellite image clearly confirms damage to the Russian corvette Boikiy in Kronstadt, St. Petersburg, Russia, following an overnight Ukrainian strike. It seems that drone was carrying quite a substantial payload.
OCCRP has obtained corporate documents for 31 companies registered in Azerbaijan, which have managed the safety aspects of “shadow fleet” tankers that avoid sanctions in order to trade in Russian oil and other petroleum products.

Short summary on gasoline shortage news for the week so far. St Petersburg gas stations have introduced 50 liter per car limits when refueling gasoline. Just in time for the St Petersburg Economic Forum to discuss alternatives on the use of petrol in cars.
By the time you hear the UAV coming, it’s often too late. With a good detector though, you can spot a drone coming from kilometers away.
As drones proliferate globally, early warning becomes critical to modern warfare. One of Ukraine's top detector developers talks about trying to solve this challenge.

Ukrainian attack drones successfully attacked Russia's Kronstadt naval base this morning, hitting and heavily damaging the Steregushchy-class corvette Boikiy in drydock.
The Boikiy was one of the most capable surface combatants in the Russian Navy's Baltic Fleet.

Full video of half a dozen Ukrainian drones slamming into St. Petersburg oil terminal this morning while Russian air defenses try and fail to repulse the attack.
Russian forces recently claimed they had destroyed a Barracuda USV. Reality proved otherwise. 🦈⚡️
During an operation in the Kherson region, Barracuda boats launched FPV drones from their decks to locate hidden targets.
Result: enemy positions destroyed, shelters burning. 🔥
MOSCOW, May 29 (Reuters) - Russian energy giant Gazprom's https://t.co/UhwEz5xKPs first-quarter net income fell by 48% year-on-year to 345.2 billion roubles ($4.86 billion) due to currency fluctuations, the company said on Friday.
The French Navy, supported by the UK, has boarded and detained the Russia-linked shadow fleet tanker Tagor (IMO 9282481) in international waters off Brest. This marks the 13th Russia-linked vessel boarded by UK or European military in the past 18 months, and the 10th this year.
The falsely flagged Aframax tanker last broadcast its AIS on May 26 while sailing from a Russian Arctic port, signaling it was in ballast and heading to the Baltic for orders. @Vortexa data indicates the vessel is laden with approximately 700k barrels of Arco crude loaded at Murmansk.
Tagor claims to fly the flag of Madagascar, but because Madagascar does not have an active ship registry, the vessel is legally stateless and subject to boarding under Article 110 of UNCLOS. The boarding on Sunday morning, June 1, revealed an irregularity of the flag, mirroring past detentions of the vessels Boracay, Grinch, and Deyna under similar circumstances.
Reports indicate the French Navy has diverted the vessel to a mooring point near Brest for further inspections, and the case has been referred to the Brest public prosecutor.
