Russia claims drone strikes on Yuzhny Odesa port cargo ships July 18

The ministry names Yuzhny's lone freighter and two vessels anchored off Odesa, calling their freight military supplies for Kyiv's forces.

MoD claims one cargo vessel destroyed or hit at Yuzhny port on July 18.
Two more cargo vessels anchored at Odesa port were struck, per the same post.
The Telegram claim, posted 13:58 UTC, offers no manifest naming the alleged military cargo.

Why it matters: Once Moscow labels a ship's cargo military, no manifest or proof is required before the strike.
