Russian Military Reinforces Balaklava Bay Amid UAV Threats.

The occupiers are installing new sea barriers in the Balaklava Bay in an attempt to protect themselves from Ukrainian unmanned boats and underwater drones.

This is reported by the ATESh movement guerrillas.

The Russian military is not only placing booby traps, but also mining the entrance to the bay. However, the defense system has weaknesses that have already been identified by ATES agents.

The guerrillas claim that the enemy is acting chaotically, trying to keep their ships and equipment in the Black Sea. At the same time, Balaklava is a key point for the Russian army, and its destruction would be a serious blow to the occupiers' military logistics.

The ATES movement calls for the transfer of data on Russian positions, promising a reward.

After the loss of numerous oil depots, the Russian army has developed a new"strategy" for storing fuel: now they are pouring it into tankers and hiding it among residential areas in the occupied territories. Such orders came from the Russian Defense Ministry to the invaders' units.

Earlier, Atesh agents, who are integrated into the Russian Armed Forces, reported the beginning of the withdrawal of certain anti-aircraft missile units from the temporarily occupied Crimea to the territory of Russia. The losses of oil depots and logistics centers have already reached a critical level, which jeopardizes the supply of fuel for Russian troops. This, in turn, could negatively affect their combat capability at the front.

Recently, the Russian military has been actively moving equipment in Crimea after attacks by Ukrainian UAVs.

Earlier, the Russian military increased the number of air defense systems near key Russian military facilities in the occupied Crimea. At the same time, they have weakened the defense of other frontline areas.
