Russians Are Afraid To Withdraw Ships To The Sea Of Azov

The Ukrainian Navy gave the reasons.

The Russian forces minimize their ships' exits to the waters of the Sea of Azov because of the limited routes for navigation and because of the high risks of being hit.

This was stated by the speaker of the Ukrainian Navy Dmytro Pletenchuk, according to RBC-Ukraine with reference to the broadcast of the national telethon.

"There is nowhere to be there (in the Sea of Azov - ed.) both in terms of basing and navigation. It is a shallow sea - maximum 15 meters - so the recommended routes there are quite narrow," Pletenchuk noted.

He said that when the Russians enter the Sea of Azov, they mix their ships with civilian ones to cover themselves in this way.

"But I cannot say that they are there all the time, because the enemy understands that the entire territory of the Sea of Azov is under our fire control," he added.
