Russia has suspended a ferry service between southern Russia and Crimea after a Ukrainian attack the previous day hit a vessel loaded with rail cars carrying fuel, Russia's Transport Ministry said on Friday.
Ukraine's Navy said on Friday that it had destroyed a ferry at Port Kavkaz in Russia's Krasnodar region, one of Russia's largest outlets on the Black Sea, which it said had been used to deliver fuel and weapons to Crimea, which Russia seized and annexed from Ukraine in 2014.
The Russian Transport Ministry said in a statement that the ferry service to Crimea had been temporarily suspended while clear-up work took place.
It said an alternative overland route could be used to send cargo to Crimea in the meantime.
The RIA state news agency, citing emergency cervices, said a fire sparked by the Ukrainian attack had "practically" not affected the port's infrastructure, but that the ferry struck by Ukraine was half submerged.

This is a strategic disaster for Putin. Supplying Crimea will bleed Russia dry.
There is no more military rail or ferry transport from Russia to Crimea. Russia is cut off from direct access to Crimea.

“There is no more military rail or ferry transport from Russia to Crimea. Russia is cut off from direct access to Crimea.”

Well, difficult at best to offer a ferry service when all are below water level...
Don’t pay the ferryman, until he gets you to the other side.
And Ukraine is patiently waiting for Russia to try to send fuel tankers over the Kerch bridge.
