Eyewitnesses publish footage from the Natra cargo ship attacked in the Taganrog Bay of the Sea of Azov on the night of June 5, an OSINT analyst at ASTRA was convinced.
The moment of impact on Natra is also visible in the footage of Ukraine’s unmanned systems. In the video, the drone flies into the deckhouse area.
Earlier, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry reported the death of five citizens and the wounding of three more in an attack on the bulk carriers Natra under the flag of Belize and Cirkon under the flag of Palau.
As ASTRA has seen, Natra has changed flags several times and was previously called Amur 2532. The Cirkon cargo ship previously sailed under the flag of the Russian Federation and was named Volga-Don 5042.
According to the commander of the SBU of Ukraine, the attacked vessels were used for illegal logistics, including the transportation of Ukrainian grain, military cargo and fuel.
The Minval newspaper noted that these vessels “do not belong to the Azerbaijani state.” The ships were sailing from Turkey to Rostov-on-Don for loading.
