💩 Judging by satellite images for today, all ships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet left the port of Novorossiysk.
The reasons for this decision of the Russian leadership and the route of the fleet are still unknown.
In the morning, part of the warships, as well as all the large landing ships, left Novorossiysk.

OSINT researcher HI Sutton reports that according to satellite surveillance data, ships leaving Novorossiysk in the morning (large landing ships and their escort) are moving in formation towards Crimea. Other ships, as previously reported, did indeed leave their berths, but the majority remained in Novorossiysk Bay.

According to our source, the Russian Black Sea Fleet is currently conducting exercises.
Ships must be brought to their bases after 23:00.
We separate, the outcome is postponed for now.
Interesting - Novorossiysk was the furthest (from Ukraine) military port in the Black sea, and the ships were there because it's harder to attack them there compared to Crimea. Where else could they hide, run away to Mediterranean? :)
Or am I missing something?
The best guess I've read is that they will use landing ships to restore ferry service across the Kerch Strait.
That sounds like we're about to see a lot of new additions to the involuntary submarine club
One can only hope!
