Russia said the entire crew of the Moskva was forced to evacuate after a fire overnight and also reported it was badly damaged. But it did not acknowledge any attack.

Meanwhile, U.S. President Joe Biden, who called Russia’s actions in Ukraine "a genocide" this week, approved $800 million in new military assistance to Kyiv. He said weapons from the West have sustained Ukraine’s fight so far and "we cannot rest now." Mariupol's capture is critical for Russia because it would put a swath of territory in its control that would allow its forces in the south, who came up through the annexed Crimean Peninsula, to link up with troops in the eastern Donbas region, Ukraine's industrial heartland and the target of the coming offensive.
It was not clear if the ship was totally disabled, but even serious damage could be a major blow to Russia, which already saw its tank carrier Orsk hit late last month.
