Employees of Ukrainian special services today, on December 5, in the morning, launched drone strikes against a series of Russian military facilities in the temporarily occupied territory of Crimea, according to RBC-Ukraine's sources.

According to sources, drones from the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) struck: the Nebo-M radar system in the area of Bagerove, a helicopter parking area, the P-18 Terek radar system, and the command system for anti-aircraft missile units Baikal-1M near the settlement of Strilkove.

"This morning's explosions on military objects in Crimea are the result of an SSU special operation," the sources specify.

They add that this was the SSU's way of greeting occupiers on International Volunteer Day, reminding them once again that Ukrainian land would literally burn under the aggressors' feet.

Explosions in Crimea

It's worth noting that explosions regularly occur in the temporarily occupied Crimea. Often, they are the result of precise strikes by Ukrainian forces against Russian occupiers.

For instance, today, on December 5, Russians complained about a drone attack on an oil depot in Crimea. Ukraine has not yet commented on this information.

Additionally, on November 24, adversaries claimed a massive drone attack on Crimea.
