Ukrainian Armed Forces strike drones destroy occupants' fuel stocks in Crimea

Ukraine's Special Operations Forces conducted precision strikes on enemy logistics facilities in the temporarily occupied territories. In Donetsk region and the occupied Crimea, drones destroyed warehouses with ammunition and fuel and lubricants.

This was reported by the press service of the Armed Forces Command.

According to the press service, on the night of January 8, units of the Special Operations Forces used FP-2 attack drones to hit targets in Donetsk region and in the occupied Crimea.

In particular, on the territory of the occupied peninsula, the SFO drones hit a rolling stock with fuel and lubricants on the fuel rack of the Hvardiyske oil depot.

In addition, in the Donetsk region, in Hirne, the Ukrainian military hit a warehouse with ammunition and material and technical means of one of the units of the 51st Combined Arms Army of the Russian Federation.

The command of the SSO noted that such strikes are part of asymmetric actions aimed at weakening the offensive capabilities of the Russian army.

Also, a new radar station of Russian troops was spotted in Crimea in the Krasnogvardeisky district. According to available information, it was installed to monitor the airspace and strengthen control over the region through regular attacks on the aggressor's targets. The guerrillas conducted reconnaissance, determined the exact coordinates of the equipment and passed the data to the Ukrainian Defense Forces.

At the end of last year, the Armed Forces of Ukraine struck several key military facilities of the Russian invaders in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine in Crimea using unmanned aerial vehicles.

The Valdai radar station and the control center of the radar reconnaissance complex in Chornomorske, which ensure airspace monitoring and coordination of Russian forces in the region, were hit. The attack drones also disabled the storage and launching base of a manned offshore boat used to monitor and patrol the coast.
