- A former Russian sailor who joined the Freedom of Russia Corps took part in the operation.
- According to the Ukrainian website, Russia does not have many of these modern ships.
- This process was followed by cabinet reshuffles, investigations and sanctions in the Baltic Fleet. It is clear that some heads have rolled there, said Yusuf.

The operation was carried out by HUR together with the “Freedom of Russia” Corps and with the help of a former Russian sailor under the pseudonym “Gog” who sided with Ukraine.
“In early April 2024, information appeared in the media space about an emergency on the small missile ship “Serpukhov” in Baltiysk, Kaliningrad Region, as a result of which the ship was seriously damaged and sent for repair,” Yusov said.

“In fact, the “state of emergency” is the result of the special operation “Rybałka” (“Fisherman” in Polish – ed.), which was organized and carried out by patriots of a free Russia from the “Freedom of Russia” Corps. “These are Russian citizens who carried out this daring and risky special operation, which caused enormous damage to both the Russian Navy and humiliatingly revealed the true state of the Russian army,” Yusov noted.
In 2023, Goga, who was an active opponent of the Putin regime, joined the resistance forces of the Russian Freedom Corps.
“Since 2023, the Russians have been actively cooperating (with us), transferring important information and finally carrying out the heroic act of disabling the missile ship. This is important because there are few such modern ships (in Russia – ed.). These are the Onyx and Kalibr missiles on board, and of course these are the same missiles that, unfortunately, hit Ukrainian civilian cities and infrastructure,” the HUR representative noted.
Hor: There are no safe places in Russia
According to Yusov, this operation showed that there are no safe places for the “aggressor state,” and that military infrastructure and targets can be attacked on the vast territory of the Russian Federation.
“This is our first operation in the Baltic Fleet. It was a big shock and surprise for the enemy. After this operation, there were adjustments, investigations and sanctions in the Baltic Fleet. Obviously, some heads turned there,” Yusuf said.
He described the operation as another successful move by the Freedom of Russia Corps, which shows that Russians in the country are ready to fight Putin’s regime.
Goga stood by Ukraine
Goga is now in Ukraine, ready to continue the fight against the regime of dictator Vladimir Putin. He admitted that he served in the Baltic Fleet for 11 years. In 2022, when a large-scale war broke out, he was the only soldier on his ship who opposed the war and did not hide his views.
“I tried to resign, saying that I could not serve in the army. The commander was shocked when he read that. The commander immediately sent me for psychological tests, he thought I was crazy, that I was opposing the Russians. “The authorities sent me to a psychiatrist, and gave my report to the command and the prosecutor’s office – to all the bodies to decide what to do with me next,” the Russian said.
According to the sailor, the prosecutor’s office initiated administrative proceedings against him, but he was unable to escape from service. In 2023, he contacted the “I Want to Live” project and began cooperation with the Ukrainian Defense Intelligence Service.
“The main sphere of our activity is the Russian information space. Our task, I will say it perhaps more clearly, is to turn Russia into a powder keg. And the spark will be us – “Freedom of Russia”. All sensible people whose outlook on life does not differ from reality understand that Putin has been destroying Russia for only 25 years, and I, as a Russian citizen, am offended by the Russian people who live in poverty and are deprived of their civil rights. – said Maximilian Andronikov, pseudonym. “Caesar”, spokesman for the “Freedom of Russia” Legion, answers the question of the pap.
“Our main direction is to influence Russian society. We will achieve all the goals that we set for ourselves: the liberation of the territories of Ukraine and the reconstruction of Ukraine. I always emphasize this, that the moral obligation of the peoples of Russia is to restore everything that was destroyed here,” he stressed.
“I would like to say that I made the right decision. Maybe I didn’t have enough charisma, I couldn’t find the right words to tell them (the people of Russia – ed.) that this war was criminal, that it simply shouldn’t have happened,” Goga said.
The Russian citizen called on his fellow citizens to join the “Freedom of Russia” legion in order to “start helping Ukraine win.”
