He published the corresponding message in his official Telegram channel.
Bratchuk said that Ukrainian military sailors destroyed the Vsevolod Bobrov logistics vessel.
The ship started on fire.
It is not yet known for sure whether the ship could reach Sevastopol in the occupied Crimea - this information is being specified.
The incident took place near the Ukrainian island of Serpents. Sergey Bratchuk suggests that the water area of the island can become a repetition of the suburb of Kherson - Chernobaevka - where Russian equipment and soldiers are regularly destroyed.
The speaker also recalled that the Russian army is building up air defense forces in Crimea. He notes that these actions of the enemy, as well as attempts to gain a foothold on Serpentine, threaten Ukraine with new missile strikes.
Recall that the media, referring to anonymous sources in intelligence, claimed that the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed the Russian ship. Sergei Bratchuk has just officially confirmed this.
