Russian naval forces destroyed a docked Ukrainian warship and a warehouse of US-supplied Harpoon missiles in the port of Odessa on Sunday, according to the Russian Defense Ministry.

In a statement, the ministry said: "In the port of Odessa, on the territory of a ship repair plant, high-precision long-range sea-based missiles destroyed a docked Ukrainian warship and a warehouse of anti-ship Harpoon missiles delivered by the United States to Kiev." 

The Russian forces also disabled the plant's production facilities for warship repair and modernization, according to the statement.

Last month, the US announced a $1 billion defense package for Ukraine, which included Harpoon missile launchers, howitzers, and ammunition for high mobility artillery rocket systems (HIMARS), according to Politico.

According to the report, the package also included two truck-mounted Harpoon launchers, 18 howitzers, 36,000 artillery rounds, HIMARS ammunition, and optics.

The $1 billion in funding for the equipment comes from $650 million in congressional Ukraine assistance passed by the US Congress last month and $350 million in drawdown authority, the report says-

The Biden administration announced a military aid package for Ukraine last Wednesday, including 1,000 anti-tank Javelin missiles, 50 command launch units, four Mi-17 helicopters, and four HIMARS systems.

It is noteworthy that all arm supply packages come while the US suffers from inflation. US market indexes fell to their lowest levels in more than three weeks. The S&P 500 index finished 2.4 percent lower, or 97.95 points, at 4017.82, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 1.9 percent, or 638.11 points, to 32272.79.

The Nasdaq Composite Index, which is centered on technology, fell 2.7 percent, or 332.05 points, to 11754.23. For much of the day, the major indices were in small drops until plummeting in the final hour of trade.
