Ukraine has frequently, and often effectively, targeted Moscow's Black Sea Fleet partially based in Crimea.

Russia's military has pulled almost all of its combat vessels able to fire cruise missiles from Crimea, according to Ukraine's navy, as Kyiv repeatedly hits Russia's Black Sea fleet presence close to the coastline of the war-torn country.'Most of the combat units, if you take the carriers of cruise missiles, actually all relocated, except for one,' Captain Dmytro Pletenchuk said on Saturday, according to Ukrainian media.

Ukraine said on March 24 that it had successfully hit two of Russia's large landing ships, the Yamal and the Azov, in strikes on the Crimean port city of Sevastopol. Kyiv later said it had also destroyed the Konstantin Olshansky landing ship and a key reconnaissance vessel, the Ivan Khurs.Russia's amphibious vessels, like the Yamal and Azov, are one of Ukraine's many targets in the Black Sea.
