The Russian Ministry of Defence has once again reported the shooting down of drones over temporarily occupied Crimea.
Local residents confirm that they heard 3 to 5 explosions on the night of 15-16 August. Also, pro-Russian Crimean tg-channels confirm explosions near Kerch.
The Russian Defence Ministry reported the destruction of five UAVs over the Black Sea. In addition, the ministry claims that the Russian military destroyed two uncrewed boats that were travelling towards Crimea.
‘On-duty air defence assets intercepted and destroyed five aircraft-type UAVs over the waters of the Black Sea. In addition, two crewless boats travelling towards the Crimean peninsula were destroyed by on-duty firepower in the waters of the Black Sea,’ – the report said.
At the same time, the Rashist TG-channel Rybar writes about 12 downed ‘targets’ and ammunition debris that fell on the Crimean bridge.
