Gotta love Solovyov’s show though. The UK realiy does live rent free in his head.
Are you sure its 2? AFAIK it is only the Santa Fe and that was scuttled sometime after engagement when being towed out of South Georgia so not really hostile action.

Meanwhile.

Ukraine’s Third Storm Brigade on the Bakhmut front says it has encircled and routed Russia’s 72nd Brigade, killing three batallion commanders and the Russian brigade’s intelligence chief as it retook the village of Andriyivka in a two-day operation.
