Russian officials and special services continue to force the families of Russian sailors to hide information about the death of their relatives on the cruiser Moskva, reports Defence Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine. 27 crew members, including 19 conscripts, are still missing. Only midshipman Vakhrushev was officially buried in Sevastopol. The commander of the cruiser, Captain First Rank Kuprin, who was one of the first to leave the ship violating the statute, explains that he was trying to save the conscripts — he allegedly received this order after the explosions on the ship.
