SSU strike Kavkaz seaport, oil depot, and russian air defense systems on Crimea bridge

Carrying out the tasks assigned by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, special forces from the SSU’s “Alpha” Special Operations Center, together with the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, and the Special Operations Forces, carried out strikes against enemy naval, fuel, and military facilities. The targets were located in the Krasnodar Krai of the russian federation and in the temporarily occupied territory of Crimea.

It was reported by the SSU, according to the Ukrainian News agency.

During the special operation, Ukrainian drones struck the infrastructure of the Kavkaz seaport in the Krasnodar Krai of the russian federation, setting fire to the tank farm of the petroleum products transshipment complex and the oil depot grounds.

In Kerch, storage tanks containing petroleum products were struck at the TES-Terminal-1 oil depot, where fuel oil, liquefied gas, and light petroleum products are transshipped. In addition, the SSU and the Special Operations Forces disabled four radars belonging to the S-400 anti-aircraft missile system and two Pantsir anti-aircraft missile and gun systems located directly on the Crimea bridge.

According to the SSU, such special operations are crucial for weakening russia’s military capabilities. The destruction of port infrastructure, fuel facilities, and air defense systems complicates the enemy’s logistics, reduces its ability to supply troops with resources, and creates additional challenges for the redeployment of forces and equipment.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, the SSU, together with other defense forces, struck a moscow oil refinery—a key supplier of fuel to the russian capital.
