Ukrainian defenders wrecked three civil motor boats, converted by the Russian army for the sabotage teams, near Velykyi Potomkin Island on the Dnipro River near Kherson, the Ukrainian military’s South Operational Command reported on Facebook on March 6.

Eighteen Russian soldiers from sabotage-reconnaissance groups were killed as well, the Ukrainian military said.

Over the past 24 hours, missile and artillery forces also destroyed three anti-aircraft missile systems, two units of engineering equipment that were used to reinforce enemy positions at the east bank of the Dnipro River in Kherson Oblast, two observation positions, and an ammunition depot.
