Russian depot of Shahed-136 attack UAVs destroyed in Crimea

A missile strike destroyed a Russian depot of Shahed-136 attack drones in temporarily occupied Crimea near Cape Fiolent.

The Dosye Shpiona Telegram channel stated this and published a photo of the damage aftermath.

It is alleged that the strike on the military facility of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, located near occupied Sevastopol, was carried out on the evening of July 1.

It is stated that missiles of an unspecified type were used for this purpose. The target was a depot with Shahed-136/Geran-2 drones, which Russians regularly use to strike military and civilian targets in Ukraine.

According to the Telegram channel’s sources, approximately 90 such UAVs were destroyed.

Ukrainian Air Force Commander Lieutenant General Mykola Oleshchuk confirmed the destruction of a Russian warehouse on July 1 in the temporarily occupied Crimea. To do this, Ukrainian aircraft launched a missile strike on the occupiers’ facility near Sevastopol.

On July 1, powerful explosions occurred in Sevastopol, near Cape Fiolent, and in the area of Balaklava TPP. It was reported about the alleged work of Russian air defense.

Mikhail Razvozhayev, the so-called head of Sevastopol, controlled by Russia, stated about the alleged destruction of “four air targets in the sky over the water area and in the area of Balaklava.”

The debris, he said, “fell in the coastal zone and Balaklava district.”

Analysts of the Crimean Wind Telegram channel claim that a military unit near the village of Flotske was struck.

“We are informed that a military unit near Karani (Flotske) was hit. They have a position on the Karan Heights,” the post reads.

The Ukrainian military regularly strikes at Russian military facilities in the temporarily occupied Crimea. For this purpose, long-range weapons made in the West and Ukraine are used.
