A clearer footage of the moment of destruction of a Ukrainian unmanned surface vessel (USV) in the Russian port of Sochi earlier on Thursday. The USV was on its way to strike the NEFRIT multi-purpose offshore vessel (green hull) but was hit by Russian gunfire before being able to reach its target. At that time, the NEFRIT vessel was already damaged from the impact of another Ukrainian naval drone.

First Combat Use of Underwater Kamikaze Drones: Russian Kilo class Submarine Disabled in Novorossiysk The Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) has carried out a special operation in the port of Novorossiysk, marking the first-ever combat use of underwater kamikaze drones. During the operation, SBU-operated Sub Sea Baby underwater drones struck a Russian Navy Project 636.3 submarine (Varshavyanka class; NATO designation: Kilo). The explosion caused critical damage, effectively disabling the vessel. The submarine was equipped with four Kalibr cruise missile launchers used by Russia for strikes against Ukrainian territory. The operation was conducted jointly by the SBU’s 13th Main Directorate of Military Counterintelligence and the Ukrainian Navy. A Varshavyanka-class submarine is estimated to cost around USD 400 million. Due to international sanctions, building a comparable submarine today could cost up to USD 500 million. This class is also known as the “Black Hole” because of its low acoustic signature and reduced sonar visibility. The submarine had been stationed in Novorossiysk after earlier Sea Baby surface-drone operations forced Russian naval assets to leave Sevastopol Bay in temporarily occupied Crimea.

What is known about Russia’s Poseidon nuclear-powered ‘apocalyptic' torpedoes? Project 09851 Khabarovsk nuclear submarine, which was launched in November 2025, is capable of carrying and deploying Poseidon torpedoes, Aleksander Moiseyev, commander-in-chief of the Russian Navy, said. Key characteristics of Russia’s underwater doomsday weapon: 🔸The Poseidon is essentially a 100-ton unmanned underwater vehicle equipped with a nuclear propulsion system and a nuclear payload of up to two megatons 🔸Designed to take out coastal targets such as port facilities and naval bases, the Poseidon can achieve this result either through direct impact or by triggering a tsunami 🔸Its nuclear propulsion affords the Poseidon virtually unlimited range and a maximum speed of up to 130 km/h 🔸The Poseidon is very hard to detect as it can dive to depths up to 1,000 meters and can actively maneuver while in motion Russia is currently finalizing the Poseidon nuclear underwater vehicle for service entry, President Vladimir Putin said.

Putin is urgently hiding his yacht — no more cruises for Kabaeva According to The Telegraph, the 82-meter Graceful, a yacht repeatedly used by the Kremlin leader — including during a Black Sea trip with Alexander Lukashenko — is now heading to Murmansk along the Norwegian coast under the escort of the Severomorsk anti-submarine warfare ship and the rescue vessel Voevoda. The yacht's deck has been covered with special anti-drone nets. And the purpose of the voyage is apparently not to evacuate Alina Kabaeva but, according to the newspaper, to move the vessel out of reach of Ukraine's long-range strike capabilities.

🚨EXPLAINED: Inside Pakistan’s underwater drone push The Iran war has confirmed a stark reality: the stealthiest threat often lurks beneath the waves. Pakistan is now doubling-down on underwater drones to protect its ports and vital sea lanes. 🟧Muhassir (USV): A locally-made unmanned surface vessel. This 10m semi-submersible (7.3 tons) reaches 40 knots with a 400+ nautical mile range. Designed for reconnaissance, it can mount a 12.7mm gun or carry explosives 🟧Corsair (USV): A private-sector development for the navy. This 4m kamikaze drone attacks warships and port facilities, carrying a 50 kg payload at 30 knots with a 100 nautical mile range 🟧Israr (AUV): A locally-made autonomous underwater vehicle. This 3m drone conducts ISR, seabed mapping, and port monitoring, diving to 300m for up to four hours Force multipliers: 🟧Mudmair: Loitering munition. In January 2026, the navy successfully tested a long-range version against surface targets 🟧Shahpar III (MALE UAS): This naval variant will be equipped with lightweight torpedoes, sonobuoys, and radar for anti-submarine warfare and maritime patrol
