The Security Service of Ukraine attacked the temporarily occupied Crimea. During the operation, one aircraft was completely destroyed and four were damaged.

This is reported on the SBU website.

The Saki military airfield, which was targeted by the SBU's Central Special Operations Center "A", is known as a key operation in the Black Sea.

During the attack, Ukrainian drones hit an aviation weapons depot. As a result, a Su-30SM aircraft was completely destroyed, and another one was damaged.

The enemy suffered significant losses. After all, only one Su-30SM aircraft can cost an average of $35 to $50 million," the statement said.

This SBU special operation is another step towards weakening the combat capabilities of Russian aviation and the occupation forces in general.

In the Voznesensk district, local residents attacked the military during mobilization - there are wounded on both sides. Police have already opened criminal cases and are investigating the incident.

In the Mykolaiv region, a captain of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was sentenced to prison for attempting to misappropriate diesel fuel from a military unit. The court took into account his participation in hostilities and his repentance, but did not release him from liability for abuse of office.

In Mykolaiv region, a deputy division commander for logistics was notified of suspicion of selling a large amount of fuel. He faces up to fifteen years in prison.

The 129th Brigade denied rumors about the possible service of Vladislav Manger, a defendant in the case of the murder of Kherson activist Kateryna Handziuk. The military unit stated that Manger has no relation to the brigade and will not have any relation to it.

The guards and TCC staff stopped the young man to check his documents. The man started to run away and jumped off a pedestrian bridge. This was the cause of his death.
