Widely reported the failed River crossing in the Donbass. Major defeat for Putin on the international stage. Either the operation that was part of is stopped entirely or they drag in resource from other places leaving them vulnerable to counter attack elsewhere.

I think the broad gist of it is that they want a tug because they're listing to 30 degrees. But I've never been on a sinking warship so am not familiar with all of the noises and terminology.

I should explain that it purports to be a recording of the comms coming out of the Moskva as it was preparing to go on a special underwater mission.
