On the night of 6 May, Ukrainian intelligence officers used a Magura V5 maritime drone to hit a Russian military speedboat in the temporarily occupied Crimea. This was reported by the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, according to "Komersant Ukrainian"
“As a result of the operation of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine’s Group 13 unit, a Magura V5 maritime strike drone destroyed a speedboat of the Russian invaders,”
– the statement said.
It is noted that the military conducted the operation in the area of the Narrow Bay of the Yevpatoria district (former Black Sea district) on the western coast of the occupied Crimea. The mission was made possible with the assistance of the United24 platform.
“As the fear of Ukrainian attacks forces the occupiers to hide large Black Sea Fleet ships as far away from the peninsula as possible, combat work continues on high-speed manoeuvring warships of the Russians, which are illegally in the Ukrainian territorial waters of Crimea,”
– the intelligence stressed.
They also reminded that the Russian ships Caesar Kunikov, Ivanovets, Sergei Kotov, Akula and Serna were previously destroyed with the help of Magura V5 strike marine drones, and the Ivan Khurs was damaged.
