Washington. The US government has supported information from Kyiv that the sunken Russian warship “Moskva” (“Moscow”) was the target of Ukrainian missiles.
“We can confirm that the Russian ship Moskva was hit by two Ukrainian Neptun missiles,” a senior Defense Department official said in Washington on Friday. On Thursday, the ministry was still reluctant to make an assessment.
