Satellite images reveal: Russia is arming Black Sea ports against drones. Despite Russia's numerical superiority in the Ukrainian war, Ukraine has already managed to decimate Russia's warship stocks by a good third.

This is probably why Russia wants to protect its remaining fleet. Despite these measures, Ukraine remains in a strong tactical position. Targets within the protected ports could still be hit with missiles. There have already been reports and images suggesting that Russia is using a so-called Maskirovka tactic to protect ships and aircraft through deception.
