At night, explosions were heard in different parts of the annexed Crimea, and an air raid alert was announced in Sevastopol.

According to Crimea.Realii, locals heard up to 20 explosions in Dzhankoy and Dzhankoy district. In Simferopol and Krasnogvardeisky districts, in Gvardeisky village and Simferopol (near the airport), up to 8 explosions were heard. It is likely that these were the sounds of Russian air defense.

"The information requires independent confirmation," Krym.Realii adds.

Also, according to the Crimean authorities, the Russian head of Sevastopol reported an air raid at about 3:13 a.m. Crimean time. The signal to cancel came at 3:28. No hits, damage or casualties were reported.

Before that, journalists discovered that the occupiers had begun installing anti-drone "grills" on railway infrastructure facilities. At the same time, the occupation business continues to sell apartments built right next to the trenches in the prohibited beach area. Also, in the settlements of the southwestern coast of Crimea, the Russian military is installing concrete structures - checkpoints or shelters.

In addition, on the island of Tuzla, near the Kerch bridge, Russians have installed metal towers with platforms on which air defense systems are placed to protect the illegally built bridge across the Kerch Strait. On top of each tower, the journalists note, the Russians have placed Pantsir-S1M surface-to-air missile systems, or rather, the combat modules themselves.

Earlier, theATES guerrilla movement reported that the Russians were installing two rows of old barges along the Kerch bridge that are no longer in use, and erecting a new fence around the perimeter. Prior to that, the enemy was moving Russian air defense systems from Crimea closer to the Crimean bridge, but on Russian territory. The convoy was accompanied by military vehicles.
