Special Operations Forces carried out a successful operation on the temporarily occupied Crimean Peninsula, destroying a Russian S-400 Triumf launcher and a large ammunition depot of Russia's 18th Army.
This was reported by the Special Operations Forces on Telegram.
Ammo depot hit near Simferopol
According to the SOF, Resistance Movement scouts obtained precise intelligence on the enemy’s arsenal in the village of Udachne near Simferopol. Further reconnaissance confirmed a large stockpile of ammunition, which was destroyed by drones on the night of October 6, 2025.
Destruction of the S-400 Triumf system
On the same day, SOF units disabled a mobile S-400 Triumf surface-to-air missile launcher located in the village of Uyutne near Yevpatoria. The system was used not only to protect occupying forces but also to strike Ukrainian territory.
As noted by the SOF, the final phase of the operation took place on October 6, but the information was not released earlier for operational security reasons.
The Special Operations Forces emphasize that they continue asymmetric actions in the occupied territories aimed at reducing the combat potential of Russian troops and disrupting their offensive plans.
Strikes on military targets in Crimea
In early November, the Defense Forces struck several important enemy sites, including fuel storage facilities in temporarily occupied Crimea.
Three fuel-and-lubricant storage sites came under attack. At the fuel depot in the settlement of Hvardiyske, hits were confirmed on a storage tank and on tank cars at the loading-unloading trestle.
The General Staff emphasized that defenders consistently hit critical elements of the enemy’s military‑industrial infrastructure — both on its own territory and on temporarily occupied lands. The main goal of these strikes is to deprive the enemy of offensive resources and the ability to continue aggression.
