In the early hours of June 21, a series of explosions were reported across various regions of occupied Crimea, signaling another wave of drone strikes. Local residents indicated that these attacks were accompanied by the activation of air defense systems.
Reports emerged from several major cities, including Kerch, Bakhchisarai, Sevastopol, and Simferopol, as well as the districts of Nyzhnohirskyi, Krasnohvardiyske, and Krasnoperekopskyi, detailing the sounds of explosions and anti-aircraft operations.
In response to the aerial threat, Russian authorities temporarily halted traffic on the Kerch Bridge. However, there has been no official word from the occupying administration regarding the impact of these nighttime strikes or any potential damage.
It is worth noting that just a day prior, on June 20, Ukrainian drone forces successfully targeted four gas compressor stations in Crimea. According to reports from the commander of the Special Operations Forces, Robert (Madyar) Brovda, these strikes hit facilities in Zhuravlivka, Aromatne, Kliuchi, and Lokhivka.
Ukrainian drones also targeted Russian logistics, damaging a vehicle bridge over the Henichesk Strait in Henichesk, a fuel tanker in Chaplynka, and logistics transport in both Armyansk and Chaplynka.
