- The submarine, nicknamed 'Black Hole,' is notable for its sonar-absorbing hull and capability to launch up to four Kalibr cruise missiles simultaneously.
- Russia denied any damage, calling the sabotage attempt by underwater drones unsuccessful.
- The strike coincided with ongoing peace talks in Berlin focused on security guarantees and plans for a multinational force to support Ukraine.
