"According to preliminary information, our colleagues carried out a strike using a front-strike class UAV. For such a target, this was not sufficient, so by order of the commander of the 17th Army Corps, the 422nd Unmanned Systems Regiment 'LUFTWAFFE' was urgently deployed, using a mid-strike Zozulia UAV with a 50 kg high-explosive warhead," the statement said.

The vessel sustained significant damage.
