According to official information, the Russian air defense repelled a drone attack on the Crimean peninsula, which has been annexed by Moscow since 2014. There is no official information on damage, deaths or injuries. The media and neighbors had reported explosion noises coming from the direction of Belbek Airport on social networks.
“Air defense systems shot down two unmanned aerial vehicles over the sea near Belbek in the morning,” Sevastopol governor Mikhail Rasvozhayev told Telegram on Wednesday.
Belbek is a Russian military airport that was repeatedly attacked by the Ukrainian army after the outbreak of war.
According to Razvozhayev, all systems are operating normally.
Ukraine therefore repeatedly targets logistical and military targets on the peninsula. Russia supplies its occupiers in southern Ukraine mainly through Crimea, which has been occupied since 2014.
Retaking Crimea is one of Kiev’s stated goals after Russia’s war of aggression has come to an increasingly halt in recent months. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this could be done through diplomatic or military channels.
