The Ukrainian Armed Forces struck warehouses, bridges, and a Black Sea Fleet base in Crimea
On the night of August 1, the Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out a series of strikes against key military targets of the Russian occupation forces in the temporarily occupied Crimea and in southern Ukraine. The strikes targeted warehouses, railway bridges, a repair base, a radio-electronic reconnaissance unit of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, and other military logistics facilities.
One of the Ukrainian military’s main targets was a depot for unmanned naval vessels in the Black Sea region of the temporarily occupied Crimea.
According to the General Staff, it was at this facility that Russian troops stored, prepared, and maintained unmanned naval vessels used to carry out combat and special operations in the Black Sea.
Ukrainian defenders also struck two railway bridges:
- the “Sivash” bridge near Chongar;
- the bridge near Vladyslavivka.
The General Staff emphasized that these facilities are key elements of Russia’s military logistics. The occupiers use them to transport personnel, military equipment, weapons, ammunition, and logistical supplies between occupied Crimea and the temporarily occupied territories in southern Ukraine.
In addition, the Ukrainian military struck a radio-electronic reconnaissance unit of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol.
Strikes were also carried out against:
- a repair and restoration base in the Pervomaiskyi area;
- a logistics depot near Podove in the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson region;
- a drone depot in the Tokmak area of Zaporizhzhia Oblast.
The General Staff emphasized that the Ukrainian Defense Forces will continue to carry out systematic strikes against the military infrastructure of the Russian occupation forces.
“The Ukrainian Defense Forces will continue to systematically carry out measures aimed at ending the armed aggression of the Russian Federation,” the General Staff concluded.
This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
On the night of August 1, drones attacked several temporarily occupied cities in Ukraine. According to reports from monitoring Telegram channels, fires broke out following strikes in Zuhres, Berdiansk, Luhansk, Dolzhansk, and Sevastopol.
As a reminder, the Russian online marketplace Ozon evacuated employees from its logistics center in Zelenodolsk (Tatarstan) due to the threat of an attack by Ukrainian drones. After the alert ended, the warehouse resumed normal operations.
On the morning of July 31, drones attacked a warehouse complex in Zelenodolsk (Tatarstan, Russian Federation), where the logistics facilities of the Ozon and Wildberries marketplaces are located. Following this, a number of Ukrainian sources reported that strikes on Ozon warehouses might continue.
