The attack with drones on Sevastopol was “the most massive since the start of the special operation” and targeted the military facilities of the Black Sea Fleet according to Sevastopol’s occupation governor Razvozhaev, TASS reported.
9 UAVs, 7 unmanned sea vehicles were destroyed in the attack on Sevastopol. The trawler Ivan Holubets and a boom net barrier were damaged, the Russian MoD has claimed, accusing British specialists in Ochakiv of supervising Ukrainians to carry out this “terrorist act.”
Unverified footage from a surveillance camera spreading online purports to show a heavy explosion in the bay in the night. Following the attack, the occupation authorities had announced that surveillance cameras will be no longer available to the general public.
