On May 26, Russian intelligence ship Ivan Khurs was seen entering its base in Sevastopol on its own power without any visible damage, just a few days days after it was attacked by Ukrainian unmanned suicide boats.
The Russian Ministry of Defense said on May 24 that the ship was attacked by three suicide boats. The incident took place 140 kilometers northeast of the Bosphorus. The ship was ensuring the safety of the Turkish Stream and Blue Stream gas pipelines in the economic zone of Turkey.
Video footage released by the ministry showed the ship destroying one of the suicide boats with machinge gun fire at close range.
The next day, May 25, Ukrainian sources shared footage showing one of the suicide boats impacting the rare of Ivan Khurs. The lack of any visible damage on the ship suggests that the boat was either damaged when it made the impact, or failed to detonate.
Ivan Khurs, which has a displacement of 4,000 tons, was launched in 2017. It has been in service with the Russian Navy’s Black Sea Fleet since then.
The ship was mainly designed to conduct patrols and collect signal intelligence. Its armament is limited to four MTPU 14.5 mm marine machine guns and six 9K38 Igla man-portable air-defense systems. Despite this, the crew of the ship was able to repel the well-planned Ukrainian naval attack.
Kiev forces began using unmanned suicide boats against Russian Navy bases and ships a few months after the start of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine. The boats, which are made of commercially-available parts, have so far failed to score any meaningful hit. It is still unclear if Kiev developed the boats on its own, or with help from its Western allies.

read the old article before it’s deleted – there it says “all drones were destroyed” 😆😆😆
and that is truth :d 2 by guns, 1 by boat = all 3 destroyed
true lol 👍
your brain is heavily damaged /basically dead
@tom
exactly. and the counter videos from russia all just show the ship’s opposite side of the attack. not the point where the ukr drone boat hit. moreover it is not clear if the russian video material was from old times. so regardless, the ukr boat camera at least shows that the boat drone did reach the russian ship. something that previously was heavily denied by the russians – but was now proven and is confirmed by the ukr boat drone camera.
indiferent, a intrat in port fara remorcher. deci nu e afectata. face fata bine
forte 10 probabil le a dat coordonatele exacte. e si acum la miezul noptii pe cer.
turkey is no vassal wimp like germany. an attack on turkstream will drive turkey further away from nato
no it wont
to sa dá zistiť veľmi jednoducho. treba si iba počkať. a čo sa týka tých útokov tak rf by mala na nich patrične odpovedať. prístav v odese ktorý majú pod kontrolou banderovskí fašisti by mal prestať byť funkčný. tým by sa predišlo k takýmto incidentom.
the video entering the port shows the starboard side of the ship. the attack video shows the attack on the port side stern. the only thing that can be concluded here is that the ship entering the harbor does not appear to have any port side list but that is pretty weak evidence of no damage.
maybe the “suicide boats” are made in the us. oh, gee. did i just say that?
this was planed in pentagon, most likely under full u.s. control, nato drones were all over the place. same as moskva, most likely sunk by nato missiles. yet russians still send lone ships…
