According to the statement, Ukrainian drones struck a Project 22800 Karakurt-class small missile ship near the Caspiysk naval base in the city of Caspiysk, Republic of Dagestan.
These vessels are small-displacement missile and artillery ships designed for combat operations in coastal maritime areas and for supporting peacetime missions.
