Abstract

Russia's Black Sea fleet, based in Crimea for 240 years, is at risk of losing its naval hub as Ukraine increases attacks in the occupied peninsula. These assaults have forced Russia to relocate its ships further from harm's way. Ukraine's success at sea is notable because it lacks its own warships and is challenging Russia's naval supremacy using missiles and unmanned maritime drones. The attacks have increased pressure on Russian defenses in Crimea and on supply lines to its troops in occupied southern Ukraine, but they are unlikely to have a significant impact on the stalemate on land.
