Amid the escalation of war between Moscow and Kyiv, the Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday said that Russia has used nearly 400 Iranian drones against the civilian population of Ukraine, according to Ukrainian media publication The Kyiv Independent.
One of the ships, the Candy, had a 17-member crew, including nine Turkish citizens and eight Indian nationals, while the other one, the Maestro, had 15-member crew, including seven Turkish nationals, seven Indian citizens and an intern from Libya.
The incident was the first major confrontation at sea in the long-running conflict pitting Ukraine against Moscow and Russian-backed separatists in the country's east.
