The Black Sea Fleet CDR Likhuta (commander of the 3rd reconnaissance detachment) came to the UA Navy SIGINT (Fiolent). He gathered the entire staff and told that the center is planned to be reotganized as a training center. This is why they need the land, personnel and equipment. He dictated the following terms: leave Crimea, write a report for dismissal or enroll into the “Crimean Armed Forces”. He suggested to think it over and prepare the questions in writing for the Black Sea Fleet Command, they will answer all those questions. The decision should be made until tomorrow. Eyewitnesses report that Likhuta was very upset and his hands were shaking. The staff made no decision. Everybody except the duty shift was dismissed to go home.
