The whole ship explosion story is weird. Accident, Neptune missile, it sank immediately, it sailed under its own power and then sank, it was being towed when it sank. Everyone got a different story but there is not one single video or piece of evidence. Not even from the Pentagon with all their spy satellites and all.
Smells to me of a cover up. But why?
Nearest thing which sounds right to me is a comment I read on another site. Special forces from a NATO country infiltrated into Ukraine attacked the ship with a missile from shore. Russia knows this and knows which country it was but does not want to say so in public as it would start a hot war, so they concocted the "unfortunate magazine accident." Russia is known for not reacting and lashing out, they wait until they have an opportunity to get even. Maybe we will see a NATO ship also sunk before too long.
The rumor I heard was definitely a missile and named it as an obsolete type - Harpoon. A large thing not some kind of shoulder launch but still could be transported and fired by a small team. Most definitely just talk on the internet though and no evidence at all. Thing is to me it somehow has a ring of authenticity to it and would explain the dead silence from Kremlin and Pentagon.
More plausible that it was sunk by a mine cut adrift by a storm a few weeks ago. Moskva was fully kitted out for AA defense but not protected enough against submerged threats.

Yes I am sure you are right.

It's isn't pretty clear what happened. But it is pretty clear that's not happened.
Uhh huh.
Here are the indisputable facts in order of occurrence.
Ukraine claimed they hit the ship with missiles.
Russia said the ship was fine and mocked Ukraine for the claim.
Russia then said the ship had a fire that led to an explosion... that was somehow totally unrelated to the previously reported missile attack.
Russia said the ship was sailing back to port.
Russia then said the ship sank while being towed in a storm... a storm that didn't exist on any weather radar.
I don't care if this post gets down voted. DO YOUR RESEARCH!!! If not YOU ARE A FAG!!!
Russia is embarrassing itself day after day after day.
