In one night in occupied Crimea, three military air defense units of the Russian Armed Forces were attacked.

On the night of April 30, three military air defense units of the Russian Armed Forces came under missile attack in occupied Crimea. There are losses among the Russian military.

This was reported by the Russian Telegram channel ASTRA, citing informed sources. The occupation “authorities” of Crimea claim that ATACMS long-range missiles were allegedly used for the attacks. They are silent about what the target of the attacks was, since these were military targets.

Near Simferopol, in the village of Donskoye, the air defense military unit of the Southern Military District of the Russian Ministry of Defense was under attack. Sources claim that a huge fire broke out at the facility and was put out for almost two hours. There are wounded among the military, but their number is still unknown.

It was “hot” at night at two more sites of the 31st Air Defense Division of the Russian Ministry of Defense in the Black Sea and Saki regions. In the first, 4 Russian occupiers were wounded. In addition, at night the airfield in Dzhankoy, where the 4th command of the Aerospace Forces and Air Defense of the Southern Military District of the Russian Federation is stationed, was again attacked. There, 5 Russian military personnel were injured.

The Ministry of Defense and the General Staff of the Russian Federation remain silent regarding the attacks. The large-scale knockout of air defense in Crimea is an alarming signal for the occupiers located on the peninsula. The weakening of Russian air defense is the preparation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces for a massive attack on the Russian military.
