Ukrainian drones hit key Russian port, damage naval ship: Kyiv official

Ukrainian sea drones have attacked a key Russian port on the Black Sea, damaging a naval ship, according to a Ukrainian official, speaking about the latest in a series of strikes inside Russia after Kyiv promised to bring the fight home to the Kremlin. Moscow said it repelled Friday's attack on Novorossiysk, which marked the first time a commercial Russian port has been targeted in the 18-month war. Olenegorsky Gornyak, a landing ship, suffered a serious breach in the attack, carried out by Ukraine's navy and security service, according to a security service official. As a result, the ship is unable to carry out its combat missions, said the official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to give the information to the media. Ukrainian news agencies carried footage from social media channels that they suggested showed the Olenegorsky Gornyak listing to one side. The ship is designed to transport troops and heavy equipment and was sent for repairs in 2014, according to Russian media reports.
