The Security Service of Ukraine's Special Operations Centre Alpha has conducted successful strikes on Russian air defence systems near the Kerch Strait and on infrastructure facilities at the Saky and Hvardiiske military airfields in occupied Crimea, Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) said, Ukrainska Pravda reports.
Early reports indicate that the special operation resulted in the destruction of four hangars used to store aircraft equipment at the Saky military airfield.
Two assets from an S-400 surface-to-air missile system were also struck near Kerch, along with two Pantsir-S1 air defence missile and gun systems.
The SSU noted that this has been the fourth Pantsir-S1 struck by Alpha forces in the area.
"The Russian occupiers are losing control over the skies above Crimea. Every air defence system destroyed and every military airfield struck opens new opportunities for further Ukrainian strikes on the enemy's military infrastructure," the SSU said.
Meanwhile, the Security Service did not post any photos or videos confirming the strikes on airfields and air defence assets in Russian-occupied Crimea.
