One sailor dead and 27 missing from the ship Moskva.

A sailor has died and 27 others are missing after the Russian warship Moscow sank last week, Russia’s defense ministry said.

Russia’s state-run news agency also said 396 other crew members had been rescued.

The Kremlin says Moscow, its pride in the Black Sea, sank last week after a fire caused an ammunition explosion.

Earlier this month, Ukraine said it had hit the cruise missile warship Neptune as it distracted the crew with a drone.

The ship sank as it was heading towards the port of Sevastopol.

Otherwise, Russia has continued today with bombings causing casualties and material damage in Ukraine.
