Blasts Hit Russian-Held Territory as Ukraine Intensifies Attacks Beyond Enemy Lines:

A series of explosions rocked Crimea and a border region inside of Russia overnight, punctuating a new phase of the war in which Ukraine is targeting enemy bases and infrastructure deep behind the front line.

An ammunition depot in Russia’s southern Belgorod region bordering Ukraine ignited late Thursday, the region’s governor wrote on his social-media pages. Around the same time, unverified videos on social media showed billowing clouds of smoke and fire in the city of Kadiivka in Ukraine’s eastern Luhansk region, which Russian forces captured in early July. Russian-installed authorities in Luhansk said Ukrainian forces had struck the city with U.S.-supplied Himars mobile rocket launchers.

Air-defense systems were also activated in the occupied city of Kerch, Oleg Kryuchkov, an adviser to the Russian-appointed head of Crimea, which Russia seized in 2014, wrote on his Telegram channel.

Residents in the Crimean city of Sevastopol, the headquarters of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, reported explosions at the local military airfield Thursday night. Sevastopol’s governor, Mikhail Razvozhayev, wrote on his Telegram channel that a drone had been shot down near the airfield but denied the airfield had suffered an attack.

A Western official said Friday that an earlier attack on a Russian air base in Crimea had put more than half of that fleet’s naval aviation combat jets out of use.

Ukrainian officials have typically stopped short of claiming responsibility for successful attacks behind Russian lines, but they have hinted at involvement. Ukrainian presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych listed on Twitter all of the sites that had been targeted and wrote: “As you understand, we have nothing to do with it.”

Russian officials didn’t immediately comment on the series of blasts. —>READ MORE HERE

Blasts, fresh drone attacks rock Russian-held areas far from Ukraine war front:

Russia reported fresh Ukrainian drone attacks on Friday evening, a day after explosions erupted near military bases in Russian-held areas of Ukraine and Russia itself, apparent displays of Kyiv’s growing ability to pummel Moscow’s assets far from front lines.

The latest incidents followed huge blasts last week at an air base in Russian-annexed Crimea. In a new assessment, a Western official said that incident had rendered half of Russia’s Black Sea naval aviation force useless in a stroke.

Russia’s RIA and Tass news agencies, citing a local official in Crimea, said it appeared Russian anti-aircraft forces had been in action near the western Crimean port of Yevpatoriya on Friday night. Video posted by a Russian website showed what appeared to be a ground-to-air missile hitting a target. Reuters was unable immediately to confirm the video’s veracity. —>READ MORE HERE
