The Ukrainian Defense Forces struck at Russian military facilities in the temporarily occupied Crimea. In particular, a radar station from the S-300 anti-aircraft missile system near Sevastopol was hit.

This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the S-300 radar was struck on March 11. This air defense element was used by Russian troops to control the airspace over the peninsula.

In addition, on March 11-12, units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces attacked other military facilities of the Russian army in the temporarily occupied territories. In particular, on the night of March 12, a launcher of the S-300V anti-aircraft missile system was hit near Borovenky in the occupied part of Luhansk region, as well as the command and observation post of a Russian unit near Vasylivka in the temporarily occupied territory of Zaporizhzhia region.

Ukrainian troops also attacked the occupiers' military logistics facilities. A logistics and ammunition depot near Dubove in the occupied part of Luhansk region, a repair unit of an artillery brigade near Yakymivka in Zaporizhzhia, and a fuel and lubricant train near Dovzhansk were hit.

In addition, it was confirmed that more than 6,000 pieces of ammunition of various types were destroyed as a result of the destruction of a field artillery depot in the area of Shyroka Balka in the occupied part of Donetsk region.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine noted that the systematic destruction of air defense assets, ammunition depots, logistics facilities and command posts significantly reduces the Russian army's ability to supply troops and conduct combat operations. The scale of enemy losses is being clarified.

Earlier, Intent wrote about how the Ukrainian military attacked the Azov oil depot in the temporarily occupied Crimea. The strike was carried out by the fighters of the 414th separate brigade of unmanned systems "Birds of Magyara".

In addition, the Armed Forces of Ukraine struck at Russian military facilities in the temporarily occupied Crimea. As a result of the operation, several pieces of enemy equipment were destroyed, including three Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft systems, a landing boat, and drone control infrastructure.

In early March, Ukrainian drones attacked important military and energy facilities in occupied Crimea. An aircraft repair plant and an oil depot used to supply the Russian army were targeted.

Drones of the Security Service of Ukraine hit the facilities of an aircraft repair facility that repairs and maintains Russian military aircraft.

At the end of February, the Ukrainian Defense Forces conducted a series of strikes against the occupiers' military facilities in the temporarily occupied territories. In particular, the strikes hit the area of a missile division in Crimea and a UAV control center in Mykolaiv region.

The largest strike occurred in the area of the missile division of the 15th Separate Coastal Missile Brigade of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in occupied Crimea, armed with Bastion coastal missile systems.
