Russian ship that fired on ‘f–k yourself' Ukrainians destroyed: report
2022-03-10
[NY Post] A Russian warship that fired on a group of Ukrainian border guards after being told to "go f—k yourself" was destroyed in battle, according to a report Tuesday.

"We f—king hit them," a man is heard saying on a recording of the conflict, the Times of London said.

Another man reportedly echoed the famous words of the Ukrainian soldier who defiantly resisted a Russian order to surrender a military outpost on Snake Island in the Black Sea during Day One of the invasion. "Russian warship, go f—k yourself," the man said.

The Valisy Bykov, a small type of warship known as a corvette, was one of two Russian vessels that opened fire on Snake Island on Feb. 24, the Times said, citing the Janes military intelligence group.

The Vasily Bykov was hit during an exchange of rockets early Monday, possibly by a missile fired by land-based Ukrainian forces defending the port city of Odessa, which for days has been bracing for a Russian attack, the Times said.

"Ship was destroyed, it is confirmed," a Ukrainian military source told the British paper. The Ukrainian navy also reportedly said units defending Odessa had "struck an enemy ship," adding: "The enemy has retreated again."

#3  It has been reported that the 2 Russian warships off the coast of Odessa are no longer there. One sunk or damaged and both leave? Quen sabe?

#2  So The Ghost of Keev was flying xer Mig-29 Panbow and had The Spetsnav Sniper attached to a pylon, and made a 2 mile shot with her AK-15 to avenge the deaths of Guardians of the Island of Transgender Misfits, of which the last remaining said, "Go Git'em!" before being atomized by The Nuke Train.

#1  Last I heard, the Valisy Bykov was caught in an artillery rocket barrage and chased off. Definitely a mission kill, but not the same thing as sinking him.
