'Damaged Russian warship Moskva has sunk - Russian ministry

Russia’s defence ministry has put out a statement to say its Moskva missile cruise ship has sunk in the Black Sea off southern Ukraine.

It’s still unclear whether it was hit by Ukrainian weaponry.

The ship is believed to have experienced significant damage and was thought to be heading to Sevastopol, Crimea, before it succumbed.

Russia earlier claimed it had experienced damage as a result of an ammunition fire on board. Crew were evacuated.)

Ah, I didn't go to the Tupulo's show. The one I went to was a club just off Esplanade below the French Quarter.
