Ukraine significantly weakens the military potential of the Russian Federation in Crimea
As British intelligence reminds, on October 7, 2024, Ukrainian forces attacked the sea oil terminal in Feodosia. Earlier, in March of this year, this facility was already attacked by drones.
Thus, British intelligence confirms that Ukrainian attacks are gradually undermining Russian military capabilities in Crimea.
Among the objects that became targets for 2024 were air defense systems, airfields, command centers, military-naval objects, logistics and places through the Kerch Channel, the British Ministry of Defense reports.
