Among the reported targets were coastal radar stations, energy infrastructure, logistics facilities, and russian air defense assets. The operation reflects Ukraine's continued effort to degrade the systems that enable Russian military operations in occupied Crimea.
Operators from the 1st Separate Center reportedly struck the MR-231 coastal radar station near the settlement of Myrne. The same unit also targeted two Neva-B coastal radar stations located near Morske and Zaozerne, reducing russia's coastal surveillance capabilities in the region.
Another strike, carried out by the Kairos 9th Battalion, hit the Tavriiska Thermal Power Plant in Simferopol. Ukrainian forces also targeted the Sevastopol and Simferopol electrical substations, which supply power to key infrastructure on the peninsula.
Additional targets included an oil depot in Dzhankoi, gas compressor stations near Zhuravlivka and Kliuchi, and russian ZU-23-2 anti-aircraft gun positioned near the settlement of Kumove. The operation involved multiple specialized drone units.
