Ukrainian drones sink Russian warship Caesar Kunikov on Valentine’s Day, spark social media buzz
It looks like Ukrainian MAGURA naval drones unexpectedly developed an irresistable attraction to the large Russian warship Caesar Kunikov on Valentine’s Day, according to social media.
The Ukrainian HUR military intelligence service orchestrated this “date,” according to the data.
The Ukrainian drones’ passion proved overwhelming, leading to the Russian ship being torn apart and sinking in the Black Sea, adding to Russia's already sizable “underwater fleet.”
Social media users celebrated this unconventional “valentine” from HUR, responding with ironic memes about romance on Valentine’s Day and the destruction of another ship belonging to the Russian invaders.
Adding a humorous twist, the landing ship met its demise on the same date that the Soviet paratrooper Tsezar (Caesar) Kunikov, after whom it was named, had met his own end.
The Kremlin chose not to provide any comments on the loss of yet another warship.
