Source: Forbes
Ukraine has designated the underwater wreckage of the Russian Moskva warship a Ukrainian cultural heritage site, according to its ministry of defense, a week after the heavily armed flagship was sunk by two Ukrainian Neptune anti-ship missiles in the Black Sea, after which Ukraine’s defense minister jokingly called it “one more diving spot.”
The Russian fleet became number 2,064 in Ukraine’s underwater cultural heritage register, Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense wrote in a Facebook post on Thursday, adding that the “famous cruiser” 80 miles from Odessa, Ukraine can now be “admired.”
The move comes a week after U.S. intelligence confirmed Ukraine sunk Russia’s fleet flagship in its biggest wartime loss of a naval ship in decades, which likely led to casualties, according to the Pentagon.
