(ANSA) - ROME, AUGUST 18 - Russia has put Viktor Sokolov at the helm of the Black Sea fleet, which has its headquarters in Crimea, in place of the now former commander, IgorOsipov, after the attacks recorded this week in the peninsula: he reports it the Russian news agency Ria Novosticitata by the Guardian.
If the news were confirmed, it would be one of the highest-profile layoffs involving an officer registered so far in the war.
