Ukraine denies Russia's report on alleged destruction of Ukrainian military boats

The Special Operations Forces (SOF) state the information on Telegram.

The message also gave an example of a message if the Ukrainian Armed Forces wrote in the style of Russian propagandists: "Last night, about 12,000 operators of the 73rd Centre of the Ukrainian Special Forces, armed with combat dolphins, moles and chinchillas, attempted to land on the Crimean coast. The enemy counterattacked with combat boomerangs. Because of this, our soldiers were forced to request the support of the Death Star and the Galactic Empire fleet."
