Russia said on Thursday the Moskva sank after an ammunition explosion. Ukraine said it hit the vessel, the flagship of Russia's Black Sea fleet, with a missile.
The Russian defence ministry released a 26-second video showing Yevmenov and two other officers standing outside in front of around 100 sailors on a parade ground. It showed them speaking to one man.

Watching that I kinda got the feeling that they grabbed a bunch of random guys, and they’re standing in line wondering “Why are we here?”

I just learned Russia most likely spent 40 BILLION propping up the rubble. So that means it’s rise back to prewar levels was all contrived and phony. Expect it to keep drifting lower again (as it has fhe last two weeks) after that stunt.

Wow! Are you guys putty in the hands of the media and the biden admin. How can believe anything they tell you with such gusto? I guess some people just never learn.

You’re just a psycho Joe. Constantly telling people not to believe anything is not a logical approach. It’s just noise.

People just want to support Ukraine because media said to.
The majority of people have no idea what has happened over there and is happening.
Any news articles on how many Ukrainian civilians have been killed by Ukrainian snipers? No? Crickets? Yes, I figured as much. That’s just the tip of the iceberg.
Oh, sorry, Slava Ukraine! /s

But, everything is going as planned.
It’s 4D chess.
Putin is merely losing to set a trap. Russian military will not break...unless used.

BOTH claims could be true.
And some people here keep claiming the ship wasn’t really sunk.

120 sailors was all they could assemble from over 500. Probably others that are burned or otherwise hospitalized, and others who perished. I don’t buy the “no survivors” line, and the “Turkish ship rescued 50” is turning out to have no substance. I’m glad the Moskva is sunk, but I’m not going to cheer the casualties.
That said, just because there are survivors doesn’t mean they didn’t use 120 clean cut, unscathed stand-ins for show.
