Units of the Ukrainian Special Operations Forces conducted a series of precision strikes targeting Russian military assets. Four radar systems were destroyed in occupied Crimea, including the 5N84A “Oborona-14”, the Nebo-U radar, and two radar stations located inside a radar dome in Yevpatoria. A command post element of a Russian marine brigade was also struck in occupied Zachativka in the Donetsk region. The destruction of these radar systems significantly weakens Russia’s ability to detect and engage aerial targets.
HUR reports 300 Russian troops killed and wounded, with 39 captured. The result: the Russian offensive was halted and the defense on the Zaporizhzhia axis stabilized.
HUR drones struck the 98L6 “Yenisey” radar of the S-500 air defense system in occupied Crimea. Additional targets hit include a Ka-27 helicopter, a patrol ship, a fire-fighting vessel, a tugboat, a boat, and a Forpost UAV.
Perekopska Street - currently one of the most dangerous roads for traffic in the city. The footage shows the present condition of the street and the risks for vehicles moving through the area.
This video captures the moment a Russian Shahed-136 kamikaze drone is shot down by a gunner on board a Ukrainian “anti-drone” Yak-52 over the southern sector of the front.
Light piston aircraft like the Yak-52 have already been used multiple times to hunt Russian UAVs. Since the Yak-52 has no built-in machine guns, the role of the shooter is taken on by a soldier sitting in the instructor’s seat, with the canopy open, firing directly at the drone in flight.
A low-tech platform, a high-risk mission – and one less Shahed in the sky.
