Russia started to illegally dispose of ships of the Navy of Ukraine captured in Sevastopol and Donuzlav, which after 2014 were located on the territory of the temporarily occupied Autonomous Republic of Crimea.

This was reported on social media.

Six captured ships of the Navy of Ukraine are located on the territory of the ship-scrapping berth in Inkerman.

In total, at the beginning of 2022, 19 former ships, boats, and vessels of the Navy of Ukraine remained in Crimea. The further fate of another 11 ships is unknown.
