The Ukrainian military has not yet disclosed the details of the special operation to defeat the cruiser, saying that the information is still being verified.

"A special operation was carried out to attack the ship group. The flagship of the russian fleet, the cruiser Moskva, is really impressed. Quite symbolically. The hit detonated ammunition and began a struggle for survival. We watched other ships try to help, but even the forces of nature were on the side of Ukraine, the storm did not allow to conduct a rescue operation or evacuate the crew" - said Humeniuk.

According to her, enemy attacks will intensify. It will be both missile attacks and artillery shelling.
