The sinking of such a vessel marks a notable achievement for the Ukrainian forces amid ongoing maritime tensions in the Black Sea.
The attack underscores the indiscriminate nature of the violence that has besieged Nikopol, a town strategically situated on the right bank of the Dnipro River.
Among the injured is Ilya Ponomaryov, a former Russian lawmaker and outspoken Kremlin critic who has resided in Ukraine for several years.
Authorities reported that over 40 drones were specifically aimed at Kyiv and the surrounding areas.
The strike, which took place overnight, reportedly resulted in multiple explosions at the site, though a comprehensive assessment of the damage is still underway.
The latest debris was found near the village of Ceatalchioi, located across the Danube River from Ukraine, raising concerns about regional security and the potential spillover effects of the ongoing conflict.
The Russian defence ministry reported that its air defence systems were actively engaged in repelling what they described as a coordinated Ukrainian assault.
Positioned near Toretsk, the village holds strategic importance due to its proximity to crucial transport routes and its potential to serve as a staging ground for further Russian advances.
According to the Ukrainian army’s General Staff, Russian forces mounted 15 assaults in an effort to penetrate the Ukrainian lines.
"The fire was one of the most challenging we have faced in recent times," said Sergei Ivanov, the chief of the local fire brigade.
