Ukraine Strikes Russian Warship at Kaspiysk Naval Base

Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out a strike against a Project 22800 Karakurt-class small missile ship at Russia's naval base in Kaspiysk, Dagestan — a Caspian Sea port approximately 1,500 km from Ukraine. The Karakurt-class ships are capable of launching Kalibr cruise missiles against Ukrainian targets. The strike demonstrated Ukraine's continued campaign to degrade Russia's long-range strike platforms, even during the nominal ceasefire period. Separately, a Russian military unit in Simferopol, Crimea was also reportedly struck.
