Explosions rocked temporarily occupied Sevastopol and its suburbs in the evening of Jan. 2, reported Radio Liberty’s Krym.Realii citing its own correspondent and the Krymsky Veter (Crimean wind) Telegram channel.
Explosions in Sevastopol were so powerful that they rattled windows, the Krym.Realii correspondent said. Local telegram channels reported that the explosion was heard in all districts.
Two pillars of smoke were seen over Sevastopol following two "powerful explosions." Windows were blown out by the explosions in one of the neighborhoods, reported a subscriber to the Telegram channel.
Two explosions were heard in the village of Kacha, while Russian air defense was heard in the village of Orlivka, Krymsky Veter reported.
Two powerful explosions were heard from Sevastopol from the village of Zuya. Subscribers reported that "houses were shaking" in Bakhchisarai.
The channel suggests that the Belbek airfield could have been targeted.
A missile was eliminated over the water area, claimed Mykhailo Razvozhaiev, the Kremlin-appointed governor of Sevastopol.
In addition to the explosions in Crimea, the Russian Federation reported a rocket attack in the Belgorod region on the same evening.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
