Frontline situation
Ukrainian military destroyed a launcher of the Bastion coastal missile system in Crimea, which is one of the key elements of Russia's control system over the Black Sea. Ukrainian intelligence also destroyed several Zircon hypersonic missiles in this strike.
Meanwhile, Russia shifts tactics, launching massive daytime drone attacks on Ukraine. During the massive strike on Ukraine overnight on March 24, Russia expended up to 40% of its stockpiled munitions.
Russia also launched into orbit the first 16 Rassvet satellites, which are intended to replace Starlink for its army. More than a dozen extra launches are also planned.
