Russian "Mongoose" scared the Ukrainian military
Russian border guards tried to make “dangerous maneuvers” near the Mariupol roadstead.
The Ukrainian Navy's press center reported this, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Thus, Russian border guards on a Mongoose type boat approached the recently arrived ships Donbass and Korets.
“Near the Mariupol roadstead in the anchorage area, there was an attempt at provocation by a Russian border patrol boat of the Mongoose type, which had recently created similar actions by dangerously maneuvering next to a Ukrainian maritime security boat. The Russian border boat tried to approach our ships at high speed, but by the decisive active actions of the crews of the small armored artillery boats “Lubny” and “Kremenchug” it was stopped and not allowed to the mooring area of the search and rescue vessel “Donbass” and the sea tug “Korets”. , the message says.
The Ukrainian Navy also claims that during the passage of the Kerch Strait, the crews of “Donbass” and “Korets” did not pay for the services of a Russian pilot.
As a reminder, the Ukrainian tugboat Korets and the floating workshop Donbass previously completed the crossing from the Black Sea to the Sea of Azov.
As Ridus reported , they passed under the Crimean Bridge.
It is noteworthy that this was agreed upon with the Russian side.
At the same time, Ukrainian TV claims that Crimeans greeted the rusty Ukrainian Navy ships passing through the Kerch Strait with tears in their eyes .
