"The remaining 396 crew members were evacuated from the cruiser to the ships of the Black Sea Fleet in the area and delivered to Sevastopol," the statement added.

The ministry assured that it would provide all the necessary support and assistance for the families of the deceased and the missing.

The vast majority of officers, midshipmen, and sailors of the sunken cruiser Moskva expressed a desire to continue service on the ships of the Black Sea Fleet, it continued.

Moscow had previously announced that the flagship of its Black Sea Fleet, the Moskva cruiser, caught on fire last Thursday after a reported attack by Ukrainian anti-ship missiles but remained buoyant. Russian sources say that the source of the fire on the ship is unknown.
