On November 27, explosions were heard in the temporarily occupied Crimea.

According to the Crimean Wind channel, smoke was rising over the Nakhimov Black Sea Naval School, located in the Strilska Bay area of Sevastopol.

Eyewitnesses reported that Russian air defense was heard in the city: missile launches and shots from anti-aircraft guns were recorded.

According to the Sevastopol Emergency Channel, a combined attack was launched against facilities on the Crimean peninsula using about 40 drones, Neptune missiles, and possibly British Storm Shadow cruise missiles. The main targets of the attack were the Belbek airfield and facilities near it.

At the same time, Russian sources report that "debris fell" in the area of Orlivka near the Kachinskoye highway in Sevastopol, which was confirmed by the city's "governor" Mikhail Razvozhayev.

In addition, there is evidence of air defense activity in the area of the Saki airfield in Novofedorivka, where four explosions were heard. The attack probably took place in several waves, as Russian monitoring channels warn of the threat of new attacks.

There is no official confirmation of the information from the Ukrainian military, and the consequences of the attack are not yet known.

Meanwhile, Russian troops have begun using the abandoned military base Gorodok-7 near Yevpatoriya, which was deserted at the beginning of the occupation of Crimea.

The abandoned base is being used to redistribute equipment from nearby warehouses, placing it throughout the area. The Russians are also installing heated tents for the military to equip the facility for long-term use.

Recently, Atesh guerrillas sabotaged a railroad section connecting the region's administrative border with occupied Crimea.

In October, according to the guerrillas, a relay cabinet was also destroyed near Novooleksiyivka in Kherson region. These actions damaged the logistics routes of the Russian invaders. The agents emphasized that this is one of hundreds of successful operations that have already been implemented.

After the arson attacks on the railroad in Crimea, the Russian occupation forces intensified counter-sabotage measures. In particular, control over the railroads has been significantly strengthened, especially in the area of Yevpatoria, where the enemy seeks to counteract sabotage.
