Cvv News (Cvvnews.com) is a Blog that publishes as a News Site.

That is OK (Free Speech).

You posted this under General/Chat, also OK and in the proper FR forum.

There was no necessity in the Qualification: "[Russia Claims]"

The source stands on it's own.

Without a navy, Ukraine can’t hold the island. And without effective air defense, the Russians can’t either.

Perhaps you might consider looking at the videos posted showing a number of Ukrainian air force attacks on the island, and the satellite photographs taken afterwards that show smoke plumes and wreckage as a result of the Ukrainian strikes.

It is fine for some blogger to publish fantasy fiction, but actual imagery of the attacks is more useful information.

Some commentary on the attack, and video of a pair of Ukrainian manned bombers hitting targets on the island

TB2 strike on a boat docking at Snake Island You can see the wreckage in later satellite photos.

The SU-27 attack video for those who don't like to go to Telegram channels.

Satellite images showing the wreckage

TB2 video showing the results of an attack on an anti-aircraft missile launcher on Snake Island.

More video of the attack

You can see the same damage in this satellite photo where the wreckage is still smoking

It sure as hell wasn't a claim. Videos exist of Ukrainian helicopters being blown up before they set ground on the island.
