– said the lawyer
In particular, today, December 27, two sailors announced that were wounded – Andriy Assist and Andriy Artemenko. They became the last Ukrainians to have recognized the illegality of the capture of Russia.
Recall that, recently, Ukrainians launched a large-scale online flashmob "Yellow-blue ship on a fir" to support sailors captured in the Kerch Strait. In particular, they decorate their houses and Christmas trees with yellow and blue paper boats.
How did Ukrainian sailors enter Russian captivity? On November 25, a Russian border ship struck a tug of Ukrainian troops in the Kerch Strait. It is known that two small armored Ukrainian artillery boats and raids were conducted in accordance with international standards from the port of Odessa to the port of Mariupol
However, Russia said that Ukrainian warships would have illegally penetrated the temporarily closed waters of the Russian territorial sea and continued their movement towards the Kerch Strait.
A group of Ukrainian ships continued their journey to Mariupol. However, during the withdrawal from the Kerch Strait, Russian border ships opened fire on Ukrainian ships, injuring six Ukrainian soldiers. Russia also captured two Ukrainian ships and 24 Ukrainian sailors, who were later arrested in occupied Crimea and taken to SIZO Moscow.
