      I don’t think that they have any ships at the moment. I bet that the boats are theirs, though.

      If you remember that raid they did recently with special forces on RIBs, the thing that took out that coastal S-400 in Crimea, I bet that they did that.

      googles

      Well, they were involved.

      The day after the destruction of the S-400, Ukrainian special operations forces belonging to the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence’s Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR), supported by the Ukrainian Navy landed on the west coast of Crimea near the settlements of Olenivka and Mayak. GUR’s Telegram channel reported that “special units on watercraft landed on the shore” before engaging Russian troops stationed in the area with the Ukraine units reporting having suffered no losses.
