The Ukrainian fleet in Crimea, it's over

(BRUSSELS2) The last ship of the Ukrainian fleet in Crimea has lowered its flag. Attacked first by Mi-35 helicopters which launched stun grenades, then by motorboats, the Cherkasy (U-311), a minesweeper was captured by Russian forces late in the day. It was then towed to the dock by the Kovel, notes the newspaper Ukrainska Pravda. The day before, Monday, the landing ship Kostiantyn Olshansky (U-402), manufactured in Poland at the Gdansk naval workshops in 1985, was also captured. The threats and other declarations have not moderated the Russian determination which has decided to put an end to the Ukrainian "holds" in Crimea as quickly as possible. It is now necessary to determine what happens to his boats. Will they be returned to Ukraine, or kept in the Black Sea Fleet. A sort of return to square one for most of these ships, except the Ternopil which is the newest of the Ukrainian fleet since built in 2006.
