(MENAFN- UkrinForm) According to Ukrinform, Brovdi published the video on Facebook.

“Kronstadt (St. Petersburg), June 3. The 'Birds' of the 1st Separate Center of the Unmanned Systems Forces tracked down and set ablaze the Boykiy corvette, a carrier of guided missile weapons,” Brovdi wrote.

According to him, the strike occurred at 06:35 at the Veleshchynskyi Dry Dock in Kronstadt, where the corvette had been undergoing scheduled repairs since February 2026.

“The Boykiy corvette, Project 20380, is the third corvette of the Baltic Fleet of the Russian Navy. Relatively new and previously undamaged, it was launched in 2011 and commissioned in 2013. It has a colorful history of voyages and operations along NATO borders, escorted Russia's shadow oil fleet, and was a hardworking vessel. It is perhaps best remembered for its infamous collision with the research vessel Admiral Vladimirsky,” Brovdi added.
