Over the past four months, 20% of the Russian Black Sea Fleet has been destroyed by Ukraine, according to British Defense Secretary Grant Schapps on Dec. 26.

Schnapps’ comments, which he says highlight the fact that the war has not become a stalemate, come after the missile strike on the Russian landing ship, the Novocherkassk.

“Over the past four months, 20% of the Russian Black Sea Fleet has been destroyed,” Schnapps said.

On the night of Dec. 26, powerful explosions could be heard in Feodosia’s port. The city is located in temporarily occupied Crimea

      Because the Russian military is comically incompetent so this sounds pretty plausible?

      Videos of the sinkings of most of these ships are freely available online, as is a fairly accurate estimate of the black fleet size. Might have something to do woth thay

      Ben Wallace may be a Tory (very bad), but as far as Tories go, he’s the only one I’m aware of with the ability to actually focus on his job. I’ve never heard anything about him or from him apart from the occasional update on Ukraine, and for that, I’ll at least go so far as to say: I don’t think he’s a clown. He is a strong contender for the Most Competent Tory.
