Russian missile cruiser sank in the Black Sea.

Russia has lost the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy. This was reported in the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, noting that the reason for everything was the towing of the damaged ship in a storm.

According to official data, about a day ago, the Russian missile cruiser Moskva, which underwent a major overhaul and modernization less than a year ago, was seriously damaged as a result of explosions and a fire on board. The nature of the emergency that occurred remains unknown, however, earlier in the United States they confirmed the fact that the warship, despite the damage received, still remained afloat.

At the moment, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation does not give specific circumstances of how the Russian warship sank, however, in all likelihood, adverse meteorological conditions greatly contributed to this, especially since the ship was damaged.

At the moment, it is known that all the crew members on board the Russian missile cruiser were promptly evacuated to other ships - there were no casualties as a result of the sinking of the cruiser.

At what distance from the coast the Russian missile cruiser "Moskva" sank, so far remains unknown.

Experts believe that it may take a lot of time to clarify the circumstances of the emergency with the Russian warship.
