The luxury yacht "Graceful", which after the start of the war in Ukraine was renamed "Kosatka" and is associated with Russian President Vladimir Putin, has been moved to the port of Severomorsk, near Murmansk, in northern Russia.
According to reports, the 82-meter-long ship arrived in this area accompanied by the Russian warship "Voyevoda", in a move that is suspected to be related to fears of possible attacks by Ukrainian forces.
Although Severomorsk is located about 1,500 kilometers from Ukraine, Kiev already has means that can hit targets at such distances.
The yacht's displacement was discovered by Danish broadcaster DR, which has been tracking its movements through satellite images since the end of June, when the ship was off the coast of Denmark and had planned to sail towards Istanbul.
According to published data, the military ship accompanying the yacht sailed with its transponders turned off, making it more difficult to track.
Meanwhile, Russia has again launched ballistic missiles at Ukraine. Three people are reported to have been killed in the attacks. The attacks come as Trump has promised Ukraine Patriot missile defense systems. What is exposing Ukraine is the lack of drone interceptors, which are manufactured in the United States.
One of the waves of drones sent from Russia hit a 25-story building, Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitschko said on the Telegram app.
In addition to the three deaths, 13 people, including a child, were injured in the attacks, two of them seriously, Klitschko added.
Explosions overnight hit the Ukrainian capital shortly before air raid sirens sounded, Reuters witnesses said.
Two warehouses were engulfed in flames after the attacks and firefighters battled the flames from crane ladder platforms until Wednesday morning.
A Russian attack on the Ukrainian Black Sea port of Odessa on Wednesday killed four people and wounded six, a senior local official said. The city, Ukraine's most important port, has been a frequent Russian target in the more than four-year war.
A Ukrainian drone hit an ambulance station outside a hospital in the city of Ivanivka, killing a hospital worker, the Russian-installed governor of parts of the southern Kherson region under Moscow's control said.
While Ukraine's air defenses intercepted 139 of 169 drones during nighttime attacks on the country, they were still unable to shoot down any of the five ballistic missiles used by Russia, air force data showed.
Moscow has intensified its air war against Ukraine in recent months, as its ground advances have largely stalled and Ukrainian attacks on its military logistics and oil industry caused widespread fuel shortages.
In July alone, Russian attacks on Kiev and the surrounding region have killed 60 people. Air defenses have shot down only four of the 54 ballistic missiles launched by Russia this month, according to air force data.
