A joint special operation of Ukrainian intelligence officers with the support of the Navy took place in the occupied Crimea on the night of August 24. Special forces landed on the shore in the area of Olenivka and Mayak settlements.
There, the defenders entered into battle with the units of the occupier — the enemy suffered losses among personnel, enemy equipment was destroyed. Also, the state flag flew again in the Ukrainian Crimea.
"All goals and objectives have been fulfilled. After the end of the special operation, the Ukrainian defenders left the scene of the events without casualties," the intelligence agency added.
The occupation administration of Crimea does not comment on the events, despite the mass appeals of local residents. The only message refers to supposedly "destruction of munitions according to a set schedule."
- Earlier, the "Krym.Realii" ["Crimea.Realities"] publication, with reference to local sources, reported that explosions were heard in Crimea. According to local residents, explosions were heard near the village of Mayak on Cape Tarkhankut from 5 am.
- The base of the 3rd radio engineering regiment of the radio engineering troops of the Russian Aerospace Forces is located in Mayak village. Tarkhankut also has a Nebo-M radar station and Kasta-2E2 radar station, and air defense positions are located along the perimeter.
