Points of attention

ATESH hit enemy electronic warfare near Sevastopol
On the Day of Resistance to Occupation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol, ATES agents successfully sabotaged a communications facility where the occupiers had placed antennas for electronic warfare systems. The equipment was located on a tower near the village of Goncharne.
According to the movement, this tower was equipped with electronic warfare antennas that created interference for Ukrainian drones in the sector.
In particular, ATES agents set fire to relay cabinets at the base of the tower, which housed power electronics and high-frequency cables.
As noted, when they are damaged, the antennas at the top turn into scrap metal: the signal simply does not reach, and restoring such equipment is very difficult, expensive, and time-consuming.
The enemy's electronic warfare operations in the area have been completely halted. This has opened an air corridor for the effective use of drones by the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
In addition, according to the movement, there are military facilities nearby that have become an easy target for the Ukrainian Defense Forces:
58th Central Communications and Information Center — warehouses of the inviolable reserve of communications equipment of the Russian Black Sea Fleet;
reserve command post of the Black Sea Fleet "Alsu-2",
15th Separate Coastal Missile Artillery Brigade.
