Minus two “ears”, Ukrainian drones neutralize occupiers’ radar stations in Crimea
During a night attack by attack drones on military facilities in the temporarily occupied Crimea, two enemy radar stations were damaged.
This was reported by Astra.
According to the newspaper, the stations were damaged as a result of the arrival of attack drones. In addition, one Russian serviceman was reportedly wounded, possibly from the radar station.
The radars were deployed on the territory of the Kazantip Nature Reserve, where, according to satellite images from 2020, there are specially prepared positions for their deployment. In addition, the fire detection service of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) shows the presence of fire at the positions for radar stations.
The fire was detected by satellite at 3:09 a.m., when the Russian Ministry of Defense announced that all drones targeting military facilities in Crimea had been hit.
According to representatives of the Russian Defense Ministry, 11 drones were destroyed over Crimea, but judging by satellite tracking, some of them still managed to reach their targets.
Self-propelled radar stations that were supposed to detect air targets within the Kerch Bridge security and provide early warning for air defense systems in the temporarily occupied Crimea were damaged.
There is also a possibility that radar stations from the S-300/400 anti-aircraft missile system could be hit.
Earlier, Militarnyi reported that satellite images showing the aftermath of the attack on the FSB communications center near the village of Semidvirya near Alushta were posted online.
The strike was carried out on the territory of the military unit on May 23, 2024.
