The list of damaged or destroyed systems includes:
Utyos-T radar complex;
RT-70 radio telescope;
GLONASS system facility housed under a protective dome;
MR-10M1 “Mys M1” radar;
96L6-AP radar, part of the S-400 air defense system.
Ukrainian intelligence noted that the operation is part of an ongoing effort to systematically degrade Russia’s air defense capabilities on the peninsula. Officials emphasized that such strikes are aimed at weakening military infrastructure in occupied Crimea.
Earlier, Ukraine’s military intelligence carried out a large-scale behind-the-lines raid in the Sumy region, eliminating over 330 Russian troops and wounding more than 550.
The operation, led by the HUR’s “Timur” unit, disrupted Russian logistics and halted an attempted advance by destroying supply routes, conducting precision FPV drone strikes, and engaging in close-quarters combat.
According to geolocated footage and OSINT sources, the assault took place near Oleksiivka and involved coordinated actions by multiple Ukrainian special units.
