Flames and Smoke Rise at Berdyansk Port as Ukraine Says Russian Ship 'Destroyed'

The 10-minute video from a local resort webcam shows a blazing ship fire, and two vessels sailing away from the Sea of Azov port.
Ukraine’s navy said the Russian Alligator-class landing ship Orsk was destroyed at the port.
