Ukraine attacked a train ferry carrying fuel tanks at the Kavkaz port in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai, the Krasnodar Krai authorities claimed, writes The Kyiv Independent.

The Kavkaz port, located on the Chushka Spit in the Kerch Strait, is one of Russia"s largest passenger ports. Its main task is to serve the Kerch ferry crossing in Russian-occupied Crimea.

The Crimean Wind Telegram channel published photos and videos showing smoke rising over the Taman Peninsula in Krasnodar Krai, which can be seen near the Kerch Bridge in Crimea.

Soon after the attack, the ferry in a Russian port sank, according to the local authorities. There were reportedly 30 fuel tankers onboard at the moment of the strike.
