Russian forces prepare ground for provocations in Black Sea – OC South

Operational Command South's press center head Natalia Humeniuk reported this during the telethon. 

"We are monitoring all these messages, all this logic of events and are ready for the possibility of provocations. We will be absolutely clear on our part to expose them," Humeniuk said.

She said that the Russians had long been preparing the ground for accusing Ukraine. For example, during the grain deal, the enemy accused the Ukrainian Defense Forces of using the grain corridor to allegedly send drones to their ships.

"The recent information that one of the Black Sea Fleet's ships was attacked by unknown drones was also aimed at fueling such preliminary grounds for future attacks," noted Humeniuk.
