The Ukrainian Navy has confirmed the destruction of the Russian ferry 'Conro Trader' at the port of Kavkaz in the Russian Krasnodar Territory. According to Navy spokesperson Dmytro Pletenchuk, the ferry was a critical component in the Russian logistics chain, as it was used to transport fuel, lubricants, and weapons. The ferry was reportedly hit by a Neptune cruise missile while it was loaded with fuel tanks. This incident marks a significant disruption in the logistics operations between Kerch and Russia, as the Conro Trader was the only large ferry operating on this route.
