Starting with... what navy.

My guess is that it probably still exists as an institution. It sounds like the Neptune missiles are their thing, so they're probably the ones firing those. They may not be at that hotel, but...

EDIT: I'd also give good odds that they're the guys doing the USV attacks.

If Ukrainian forces can make it to the shores of the Sea of Azov, my guess is that the Ukrainian Navy's role is going to get considerably more interesting, as I expect that they'll be responsible for doing the cutting of Russian supply lines over water to Crimea. As things stand, they can maybe interdict vessels in the Black Sea, but not the Sea of Azov, so they can't really fully cut off supply over water.
