[Regnum] The Russian Navy ship Novocherkassk was damaged in Crimea as a result of an attack by the Ukrainian army on Feodosia, the Ministry of Defense reported on December 26.

“Tonight, while repelling an attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces using aircraft guided missiles at the Feodosia base, the large landing ship Novocherkassk was damaged,” the department reported.

The department clarified that air defense forces destroyed two Su-24 tactical aviation aircraft of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in an anti-aircraft battle near the village of Zhovten, 125 km northeast of the city of Nikolaev in Ukraine. These aircraft launched aircraft guided missiles.

One person was killed and two were injured during an attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the city of Feodosia (Crimea), the head of the region, Sergei Aksyonov, reported on December 26 in his Telegram channel.

“Unfortunately, as a result of an enemy attack in Feodosia, one person was killed and two were injured,” Aksyonov said.

The governor added that six buildings in the city were damaged as a result of the attack. Mostly their windows were broken.

He noted that six people were transported to temporary accommodation centers; the rest of the residents of the affected buildings were hosted by friends and relatives. In Feodosia, despite the shelling, transport continued to operate as normal.

As Regnum reported, early in the morning of December 26, Aksyonov wrote in the Telegram channel about the attack of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Feodosia region. He informed that a fire broke out in the port, which was localized.

Earlier, the head of Crimea called on the Kiev regime to forget about Crimea as soon as possible.

#1 Sunk actually according to photos. Several more valuable ships in harbor at the time - curious that this was the target selected.

#6 The reports of the ship being used to transport munitions appear to be accurate. I have never seen a ship go up like that. It reminds me of a memorial price of ship that I saw by the gate at the Ammo Ship base in Colt’s Neck NJ.

#7 So not just a 'hey we hit the port' missile.
Somebody had timing and targeting intel.

#8 The second ship was worthless, but floating and removing it will have to be done eventually. Keeping a derelict in service to inflate the strength numbers was a mistake.

#9 Local Russian reports are only one individual, a female security guard, was killed.

The amphibious landing ship was only damaged.

#10 Years ago I was a DCA on a destroyer. DCA is an acronym for Damage Control Assistant so I had training in firefighting and other bad things on ships. I have maintained an interest in fire on ships over the years. I have never seen anything like that conflagration. I studied the Stark, Roberts, Iowa, Forestall, as well as others and inspected the damage from a small fire onboard the USS Cunningham. My own ship was decommissioned early due to a fire.
I have never seen a fire like the video from that fire. The ship burned like a matchstick. It looked like the Texas City disaster. That ship is not damaged. It is slag. That was a magazine fire without any type of material condition properly set. What is left is slag. Almost all of the ships that were sunk at Pearl other than two were refloated for repair of for use as parts donors. Cole, Stark, Roberts, Belknap and Forestall were repaired. This Russian ship is done. That fire looked like Jiffy Pop loaded with cherry bombs. Anyone on that ship at the time of impact is in the morgue not the hospital. Anyone on liberty was a lucky son of a gun.

#11 The scale of the explosion is seen as due to a large quantity of munitions on board when the Storm Shadow missile struck.

One piece of the hull of the landing ship was found one kilometre - more than half a mile - from the explosion.

Other debris was scattered around Feodosia.

Reports have suggested the Novocherkassk was 4,400 pieces of artillery ammunition and 280 missiles for the BM-21 Grad MLRS.

There were also claims the vessel was carrying Iranian Shahed drones for use to strike Ukrainian targets.

#12 Frank, one of the things that you are missing when you use an amphib as an ammunition ship is adequate magazine storage. They must have been using the vehicle or landing boat bay for storage without fire suppression. Hindsight is 2020, but they could have parked the “training hull” outboard of the ship that they lost. Probably would not have worked, but they both were lost anyway.
