A classified ammunition depot of the Russian Black Sea Fleet was discovered at Cape Fiolent in temporarily occupied Sevastopol. According to the agents, the Russian military is using the territory of the former Ukrainian unit to camouflage equipment and shells due to the constant threat of Ukrainian drone strikes.

This was reported by agents of the ATES movement, who conducted a detailed reconnaissance of a military facility at Cape Fiolent near Sevastopol.

This is the territory of the former 25th Separate Missile Division of the Ukrainian Navy, which operated the 4K51 Rubizh coastal missile system before the occupation of Crimea.

According to the guerrillas, this territory is now actively used by the Russian military. The occupiers turned the object, which does not attract attention from the outside, into a hidden storage point for ammunition and equipment of the Russian Black Sea Fleet.

During the surveillance, the agents recorded the location of warehouses, platforms for equipment, and routes of freight transport. They also identified the periods of greatest activity - the main movement of goods takes place in the morning and evening hours.

The movement noted that due to constant attacks by Ukrainian drones, the Russian army is forced to abandon large traditional warehouses that are easy to detect. Instead, ammunition is increasingly being hidden in inconspicuous or former military facilities.

The agents passed the information gathered during the reconnaissance to the Ukrainian Defense Forces for further response. The movement also called on residents of the occupied Crimea to report on the storage of equipment, ammunition, and the movement of the Russian military.

In March, guerrillas struck at the logistics of the Russian army. A diesel locomotive at a railway junction near Simferopol was put out of commission. According to the movement, the locomotive is not subject to quick recovery. The operation was carried out on the eve of March 18, the date that Russia calls the "day of reunification" with Crimea. It is through this junction that the key supply of Russian troops in the Zaporizhzhya direction passes.
