The video of the strike was posted on May 25 by an unofficial Telegram channel of the Ukrainian military.
"Footage from a maritime drone that did hit the Russian reconnaissance ship Ivan Khurs, the loss of which is quite sensitive for the Russian navy," the caption reads.
The video was also shared by the head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov, with a caption:
"The Russian Defense Ministry claimed that the attack was 'unsuccessful' and all three drones were destroyed, but the footage shows the opposite. Most likely, Ivan Khurs was damaged."
Ukrainska Pravda media, citing its own sources, confirmed the authenticity of the video and noted that the Russian ship was damaged in the attack.
"It did not sink, but it was hit, there is significant damage to the hull and equipment. Now Russians are hastily repairing it," the source said.
The Russian Defense Ministry said that on the morning of May 24, the Ivan Khurs reconnaissance ship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet was attacked by high-speed unmanned ships of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Russia claimed that all the drones were allegedly destroyed by fire from conventional weapons 140 kilometers northeast of the Bosphorus Strait.
