Dramatic footage released yesterday shows three strikes on the Askold, the most modern warship in the Kremlin\u2019s Black Sea Fleet, which turned into a raging fireball.<\/p>\n

Now, Ukrainian Telegram channels have claimed that a Russian captain sold Kyiv information via a social media messenger on the location of the vessel in a shipyard in Kerch, in the east of annexed Crimea.<\/p>\n

Alexander Ermolenko, 39, commander of the Buyan-M class guided missile corvette Ingushetia 630, is alleged to have haggled to get the price up from \u00a3815 to \u00a31,220 for the vital information.<\/p>\n

Neither Ermolenko, right, nor the Russian authorities have responded to the allegation, nor commented on the claim about the social media messages which gave the coordinates of the shipyard.<\/p>\n

The Telegram messaging service reports did not explain how a Black Sea Fleet captain may have came to be communicating with Ukrainian agents.<\/p>\n
