Ukraine has conducted active military operations in Crimea, launching missile strikes and drone attacks against the occupying Russian armed forces in the region. These actions are an important part of Ukraine's broader strategy in the south of the country. This was reported by Bloomberg.
Having destroyed the advanced air defense systems defending the peninsula, Ukraine used cruise missiles and drones to destroy ships and the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, and also repelled drilling platforms used for radar activities. These actions have significantly limited Russia's capabilities on the Black Sea coast.
The anonymous European official emphasized that these attacks fit into a larger strategy aimed at disrupting Russian supply lines and establishing control over logistics.
It also serves as a reminder of Ukraine's broader strategic goal of regaining the Crimean peninsula, which was occupied by Russia in 2014.
However, experts doubt that these actions will allow Ukraine to achieve a decisive breakthrough in the ground war in the near future.
