This is the best summary I could come up with:
Ukraine has claimed it killed the commander of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, in one of Kyiv’s boldest attacks yet on the occupied peninsula of Crimea.
The Ukrainian Special Operations Forces said in an update that Friday’s attack killed Viktor Sokolov along with 33 other officers.
CNN cannot independently confirm Ukraine’s claims about Solokov or the number of casualties.
Moscow has said that one serviceman is missing as a result of Ukraine’s attack on Sevastopol.
Kyiv’s military said on Friday it had successfully targeted a Russian command post near Verkhniosadove, a few kilometers from Sevastopol.
The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) noted that satellite imagery confirmed that Ukrainian forces “struck the 744th Communications Center of the Command of the Black Sea Fleet… as part of an apparent Ukrainian effort to target Black Sea Fleet facilities.”
