An attempt by the Kiev regime to commit a terrorist attack on Crimea using 28 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) was thwarted overnight, Russia’s Defense Ministry announced.
Seventeen Ukrainian UAVs were downed by Russia's air defense systems, said the MoD. Eleven more drones, suppressed by electronic warfare means, crashed without reaching their target.
No casualties or damages resulted from the attack, the Defense Ministry added.
On July 17, Ukraine committed its latest terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge using surface naval drones. The bridge's roadway sustained damage, while the structures of the spans remained “on their supports," according to the Transport Ministry. On Tuesday morning, vehicular traffic on the bridge was restored.
