They are certainly targeting Ukraine, but maybe they left harbour because a) the destruction of surface ships by Neptun missiles and drones, and b) being in reach of the blue spear system supposedly to be delivered from Israel..
I wonder how Ukraine could detect them now, take it they will snorkel at night only.

Thanks Catfish, there are currently 7 kilos in the Black sea fleet 6 are active B871 Arosa the lone project 877V is currently in maintenance.
B871 Alrosa, B261 Novorossiysk, B271 Kolpino, B268 Vilikiy Novgorad, B262 Starry Oskol, B265 Krasnodar, B237 Rostov on don
Sevastopol is within range of Ukrainian forces for sure so bringing them back to some where like Novorossiysk would be a good move.
So far only Moskva has been sunk by Neptun the others were damaged by other means, we also know the Makarov is undamaged and currently sailing.
But leaving port could also be a sign they are preparing to fire kalibr and klub missiles which wouldn't be too far fetched as the 636.3 are able to do this.
Don't forget there's no threat to them when at sea so why not use the assets in that environment.
