The UK’s Ministry of Defence reports that Russia’s Black Sea fleet is facing issues reloading its vessels with cruise missiles.
It said:
Traditionally, BSF has reloaded cruise missiles at Sevastopol in Crimea. With that facility increasingly held at risk by Ukrainian long range strikes, Russia will highly likely see Novorossiysk as the best alternative site.
However, relocating and reloading the missiles would require new delivery, storage, handling and loading processes.
