During a drone attack on the temporarily occupied Crimea, a Russian military radar station was damaged. This occurred on the night of October 23, according to the ASTRA Telegram channel.
Yesterday, Russian military officials claimed to have repelled an attack by enemy drones, stating that 10 drones were shot down over occupied Crimea. The rest were shot down over the Rostov region.
However, as reported by ASTRA, explosions were heard near the settlement of Olenivka on the night of October 23. Due to the operation of Russian air defense, one drone exploded in the area, damaging a mobile radar station.
It is likely that the mobile unit belonging to the 31st Air Defense Division was affected. It is not specified which model of the station was damaged.
