The cargo ship Sparta, which the Russians had sent to take their weapons and equipment from Syria, broke down in the open sea.
This was reported by the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
The Ukrainian intelligence reported the reasons for the breakdown of the ship Sparta.
“The cargo ship “Sparta”, which Russia sent to transport its weapons and equipment from Syria, broke down during movement – the fuel pipe of the main engine failed,” the statement said.

At the same time, the remnants of the Russian contingent in Syria have completed withdrawal from remote areas and are in only two places – at the air base in Khmeimim and at the naval base in Tartus.
