Gentlemen,

Russian cruiser Moskva is sunk by two Ukrainian guided Neptune missiles. Question is where did the missiles fired from?

At first Ukrainian Bayraktar drone has hit its air defense radar and then two missiles were launched from Ukrainian coast.

The Ukrainians has excellent firepower and spirit among their military. One question, does the Ukrainians have a navy of their own? The Moskya of the Russian navy had a lot of crew deaths when she sank out of sight.

Yes, Ukrainians have a yery small (both in numbers and size of the ships) navy of their own. It is no match for what naval forces the Russians can deploy in the Black Sea. In fact, the Ukrainian Navy flag ship, the Hetman Sahaidachny, a Krivak III-class frigate, was scuttled to prevent her capture by the Russians.
