On the night of March 6, Ukraine's Security Service drones carried out a series of strikes on military facilities of the Russian troops in Crimea. An aircraft repair plant and air defense positions near Dzhankoi were hit, according to the sources.
Tonight, the SBU Special Operations Center Alpha opened the season of spring strikes on Russian military facilities in Crimea.
The drones hit the production workshops of Yevpatoria Aviation Repair Plant, as well as positions of military equipment and personnel in Pushkine, near the Dzhankoi airfield.
According to preliminary information, the following were hit:
- Two Pantsir-S2 anti-aircraft missile and gun systems.
- A Mohajer-6 UAV on the airfield.
- A ZU-23 anti-aircraft installation on a truck.
- Two fuel tankers.
- A ground control station for the Forpost UAV.
The SBU emphasized that systematic special operations in Crimea are aimed at weakening Russia’s military infrastructure that it uses to attack Ukraine.
"The enemy will not be able to feel safe — especially on the territory of Ukrainian Crimea," an informed SBU source said.
