Ukraine has claimed to have struck at least 35 Russian ships and tankers across the Black Sea and Sea of Azov over the past 96 hours, according to a report by N12 journalist Asaf Rozentzweig. The claim, if confirmed, would represent a dramatic escalation in Ukraine's maritime campaign against Russia's shadow fleet, which has been ongoing for months. Earlier today, The Zioneer reported that an Ukrainian unmanned vessel struck a Russian tanker in the Black Sea (06:34), and a video emerged showing an attack on tankers overnight (12:38). Previous reports over the past week indicated strikes on 5 cargo ships in the Sea of Azov (June 5) and 9 shadow fleet tankers (July 8). The figures are not independently verified, and it remains unclear how many of the reported 35 vessels are new strikes versus cumulative totals from previous reports.
