Footage shows sea drone targeting Russian tanker near Crimea

Footage from a camera on a sea drone shows it apparently approaching a Russian tanker near Crimea. Russian authorities said the Sig was hit late on Friday night south of the Kerch Strait. It was the second drone attack targeting Russian vessels within a day. A similar attack damaged a Russian naval vessel in the Black Sea near Novorossiysk. An anonymous Ukrainian security service source claimed the attack, which involved a naval drone and explosives, was a joint operation with the navy in Ukraine’s territorial waters. Russia’s state RIA Novosti news agency said there had been no casualties in the attack, citing the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre of Novorossiysk.
