Ukraine war latest: Russia launches mass missile attack on energy infrastructure; Ukraine reportedly hits airbase in Crimea:

Strike on Crimea

Ukraine launched an overnight attack on the Saky Air Base in Russian-occupied Crimea, sources in Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) told Ukrainian state news agency Ukrinform on Sept. 21.

The operation reportedly first used drones to exhaust Russian air defense systems, following with Ukrainian-made Neptune missiles.

The attack, allegedly carried out by the SBU and Ukraine’s Navy, seriously damaged Russian equipment at the base, Ukrainska Pravda media outlet reported, citing an SBU source.

The SBU said that over a dozen aircraft are stationed at the base, including Su-24 supersonic bombers and Su-30 fighter planes and a S-400 Pantsir missile system, worth $1.2 billion. One of the S-400 missile systems was hit by Neptune on Sept. 14.

The base is also home to a Russian military training center for operating Iranian-made Mohajer drones, the SBU said.

In the early morning hours, the Russian Defense Ministry announced that Crimea had been hit by a large-scale drone attack and claimed to have shot down over 19 drones. Saky was named as one of the locations where explosions were heard.

Saky is in the western part of the Crimean peninsula, around 50 kilometers north of Sevastopol.

In recent months, there were several high-profile strikes on Russian forces in the area, including one on Sept. 13 using marine drones and missiles that damaged landing craft, a submarine, and port infrastructure in Sevastopol. —>READ MORE HERE

Special operation in Crimea: Ukrainian Security Service and Navy deal powerful blow to Saky airfield:

The Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) and the Navy conducted a special operation in temporarily occupied Crimea on the night of 21 September, inflicting a powerful drone strike on Saky airfield.

Source: UP sources in the SSU

Details: The sources said that the special services used drones to overload Russian air defences and then launched Neptune missiles.

At least 12 combat aircraft, including Su-24s and Su-30s, as well as a Pantsir anti-air missile system, were at the airport. There was also a training base for Mohajer UAV operators. These drones are used by the Russians to coordinate their own air attacks and sometimes deployed as a strike drone.

The sources said the strikes by the SSU and the Navy hit their targets and caused serious damage to the Russian equipment.

Background

  • The Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) reported that Russian personnel were killed and expensive military systems were destroyed as a result of an attack on a command post of the Russian Black Sea Fleet near Sevastopol on the morning of 20 September. 
  • Earlier, the Russian Ministry of Defence and Russian news outlets reported explosions in occupied Crimea, and the invaders claimed to have shot down 19 drones over the peninsula.
