An announcement from the Ukrainian General Staff stated that the ships Yamal and Azov were destroyed.

The Russian-installed governor of the port of Sevastopol said that 10 Ukrainian missiles were shot down.

Mikhail Razvozhayev, the Russian-appointed mayor of Sevastopol, said that an office building and a gas pipeline were destroyed in the Ukrainian attack, and a woman was injured by shrapnel.

It is unclear if he was referring to the same attack as the Ukrainian General Staff.

Russia also launched a missile and drone attack on the capital Kiev and the Lviv region early Sunday morning.
