Ukrainian special forces carried out another successful operation in temporarily occupied Crimea, destroying two An-26 transport aircraft and several radar stations, reports the Main Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine (HUR).
Fighters of the HUR special unit Prymary ("Ghosts") burned two An-26 transport aircraft stationed at the airfield of the Russian occupiers.
In addition to aviation, air defense facilities were also targeted. The Prymary struck a Russian surface surveillance radar station, as well as the coastal MR-10M1 Mys M1 radar.
It should be recalled that the HUR Prymary special unit, for the first time in history, destroyed two enemy Be-12 Chaika ("Seagull") amphibious aircraft in temporarily occupied Crimea. They also struck another Russian Mi-8 multipurpose helicopter.
Earlier, the HUR Prymary special forces destroyed several key Russian air defense and communication systems in Crimea, including an S-400 complex.
At the beginning of summer, Ukrainian drones from the Prymary unit also successfully struck a Russian S-400 air defense system in Crimea, hitting control and detection radars as well as a launcher.
In addition, in Russian-occupied Crimea, near the city of Saky, a radar station of the S-400 Triumf surface-to-air missile system was destroyed.
