> The GUR successfully disabled another Russian warship. The Baltic Fleet minesweeper “Aleksandr Obukhov”, based in the city of Baltiysk, was damaged during a special operation. After water entered the engine, it’s now in for expensive and complex repairs. This is the 2nd Russian ship disabled by Ukraine in the past 6 months.

If an engine ingests saltwater, it pretty much needs to be replaced. It happened to a friends diesel engine. Miserable stuff. 😬!
