A swarm of strike drones pounded temporarily occupied Crimea overnight, triggering massive explosions across the peninsula, Crimean Wind channel wrote on Feb 24.
The channel noted that heavy blasts echoed through Sevastopol and Saky. A particularly powerful explosion tore through the Kacha military airfield after that.
Mikhail Razvozhayev, Russian puppet governor of Sevastopol, claimed that local air defenses allegedly shot down seven aerial targets over the sea. Occupation authorities have predictably withheld any information regarding the true scale of the destruction and the attack aftermath.
Striking Bastion system on Feb. 23
This nighttime raid follows a devastating blow delivered the day before.
AFU General Staff reported on Feb. 23 that Defense Forces successfully struck a concentration area of the Russian Black Sea Fleet's 15th Separate Coastal Missile Brigade, which operates the deadly Bastion coastal missile system.
The military confirmed direct hits on the enemy targets, with Russian casualties and equipment losses currently being clarified.
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.
