This is the best summary I could come up with:
Russia says Ukraine has launched 10 missiles and three unmanned boats in an attack on the home of its Black Sea fleet in Crimea.
A photo shared by Mr Razvozhayev on Telegram shows flames engulfing what appears to be a vessel at a port as he stands speaking into his phone.
It is thought to be in an area where ships were undergoing repairs but it is unclear if any vessels in dry dock, including a submarine, have been damaged.
The fact that some missiles got through Russia’s air defences and appear to have done substantial damage will be of real concern in Moscow.
Russia illegally annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014 and this attack shows the tussle for control of the waters.
The governor of the Odesa region, Oleh Kiper, said six people had been injured in the attack, which caused a fire and damaged infrastructure.
