Ukrainian defenders attacked the Gvardeyskoye oil depot in temporarily occupied Crimea on the night of November 10. Drones struck the target with precision, according to the Ukrainian Special Operations Forces Command.
"On the night of November 10, units of the Special Operations Forces successfully struck the oil depot of the state-owned enterprise Gvardeyskiy in Karierne, Saky district, temporarily occupied Crimea, Ukraine," the Special Operations Forces said.
Ukrainian drones hit the pump station on the territory of an oil depot.
The military explained that the federal state-owned Gvardeyskiy oil depot plays a key role in supplying fuel to Russian forces in Crimea. It supports Russian military facilities and provides transport fuel for the Russian army.
The Special Operations Forces confirmed that they will continue such operations to deprive Russian troops of the ability to sustain their offensive.
October 17 attack
Earlier, on October 17, Ukrainian forces also targeted the federal state-owned Gvardeyskiy facility.
That night, drones from the Ukrainian Special Operations Forces struck the enemy site and also hit the oil depot in the settlement of Hvardiiske.
Previously, the Special Operations Forces reported that they continue to block Russian attempts to break through to Pokrovsk, destroying small enemy groups with FPV drones and heavy bombers.
Ukrainian crews carry out precise strikes on Russian troops both day and night, systematically thwarting breakthrough attempts.
These actions strengthen the city’s defense and help Ukrainian forces hold positions, repelling assaults by Russian forces.
