Strike on the Kavkaz port
During the same operation, intelligence officers together with other units of Ukraine’s Defense Forces also struck infrastructure at the Kavkaz port in Russia’s Krasnodar region.
Russia uses this port to support its war against Ukraine.
It is worth noting that the ferry Slavyanin had already been hit before. In the summer of 2024, it sustained significant damage in a Ukrainian strike.
Recently, the General Staff also reported a successful strike on the Kremniy El plant in Bryansk, which produced microchips for missiles.
