In a bold move, Ukrainian military intelligence has been claimed responsible for an attack on a Russian naval missile carrier in the Baltic Sea, according to an official familiar with the operation. The incident took place in the Russian territory of Kaliningrad, which is an exclave nestled between Poland and Lithuania.

The information about the attack was released by Ukraine's defense intelligence service, although it could not be independently confirmed. Footage from the video released by Ukraine's military intelligence service showed flames causing damage on the Russian corvette Sepukhov.

The attack on the Russian missile carrier would mark the first offensive action by Ukrainian forces in Kaliningrad, as they strive to target Kremlin forces far from the front line. The operation signifies Kyiv's determination to strike back against Russian forces outside of Ukrainian territory.

The exact details of the attack, including the nature and extent of the damage inflicted, remained undisclosed. Neither the number of casualties nor the date of the incident was provided in the available information.

This daring move by Ukrainian military intelligence signals a rising tension in the region, as both countries continue to be locked in a conflict that has resulted in significant casualties and a deepening divide. The situation remains fluid, and it remains to be seen how Russia will respond to this alleged attack on its naval forces in the Baltic Sea.
