Ukrainian Drone Force Commander Reports 300 Ships Disabled
- On Tuesday, Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces announced Operation MoLoChKa has disabled 300 Russian shadow fleet vessels over 11 weeks, stripping them of self-propelled capability.
- Russia uses aging tankers to evade Western oil sanctions, but the campaign has transformed the Azov and Black seas from supply corridors into contested waters where shadow fleet vessels now face constant risk.
- SBS Birds struck 134 vessels in the Azov Sea and 166 in the Black Sea, according to commander Robert 'Madyar' Brovdi, who specified all are unable to move under their own power.
- MSC Mediterranean Shipping suspended bookings at Novorossiysk in late August, while Russia closed the Don-Azov shipping channel and Kerch Strait following initial strikes.
- Parallel Operation Crimean Switch Off has struck 374 energy nodes across Crimea by September 10, while Brovdi nicknamed the disabled vessels the '300th fleet,' a play on military codes for the wounded.
