USF successfully hit 48 targets in total. Among them are a gas compressor station in the settlement of Kliuchi in Crimea, as well as the following substations:
- 35 kV electrical substation of the Tarkhankut Wind Farm,
Okunivka;
- 35 kV Tarkhankut Substation, Chornomorske;
- 110 kV Bilohirsk Substation;
- 110/35 kV Vypasne Substation;
- 110 kV Saki Substation;
- 110 kV Tavriya Substation, Kliuchi;
- 110 kV Mykolaivka Substation, Vinnytske;

Monitoring groups earlier reported strikes on at least seven electrical substations in Crimea on the night of July 3. Specifically, substations were burning in the settlement of Saki and in Staryi Krym.
The power went out in a number of settlements on the occupied peninsula, Crimean Wind wrote. Meanwhile, the "authorities" of the annexed peninsula claimed there were "accidents" in the power grids.
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.
