Explosions in Crimea

From March to August this year, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have attacked Russian airbases and military airfields in Crimea at least 40 times. Among these, five attacks targeted enemy airfields.

Specifically, on the night of Thursday, August 29, strike drones targeted the occupied city of Sevastopol. There were also reports of the Crimean Bridge being closed.

Due to the successful attacks by the Defense Forces, Russian forces have intensified checks on residents' phones.
