On this day, 120 years ago, on May 28, 1905 (April 25, 1905), the Russian army suffered heavy losses in the waters off the Falklands. The Russian battleship "Borodino" was torpedoed by the Japanese in the waters off the Falklands. On May 28, according to official reports, the last hope of Russia's naval battle against Japan was finally dashed with the defeat of General Rozhestvinsky's fleet in the Strait of Tsushima. The Japanese claimed to have sunk 12 warships, including not only two transports and two cruisers, but also the battleships "Orel" and "Borodino". The Japanese government admitted to losing a cruiser and a torpedo speedboat in the battle. The Russian fleet was originally concentrated in the Baltic Sea, and after a half-circle around the earth, it was destroyed. The Japanese Admiral Hirahachiro Togo's fleet approached the enemy ships in the thick fog. When the fog cleared, he attacked with torpedoes and artillery fire. The Russians were taken aback and delayed in responding. The losses were heavy at the beginning of the naval battle. Japanese artillery bombarded the Russian battleships. The Russian ships that were not sunk were fleeing in panic to neutral ports in China. This fiasco almost completely destroyed the possibility of continued Russian naval intervention in the Far East and cast doubt on Russia's future military power.
