The Commander of the Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces, Robert “Madyar” Brovdi, has reported a series of strikes carried out overnight on July 6 against Russian military and logistical targets in occupied Crimea and Russian territory.

According to Brovdi, Ukrainian units conducted operations against 47 “legitimate military targets” in Russia’s operational rear and deeper territory during the night.

In the Azov Sea, Ukrainian forces reportedly targeted two tankers transporting fuel from the Taganrog area toward occupied Crimea.

Each vessel, described as part of a so-called “shadow fleet,” was said to be carrying around 7,000 tons of fuel, equivalent to roughly 200 rail tank cars.

 

 

In occupied Crimea, Ukrainian forces struck a fuel storage facility in Kerch, resulting in a fire, according to the report. The strike is part of a broader series of attacks on logistical infrastructure supporting Russian military operations on the peninsula.

 

 

Brovdi also claimed that during a Russian missile attack on Ukraine, Ukrainian forces destroyed two S-400 “Triumf” air defence launchers.

One launcher was reportedly hit in Russia’s Bryansk region, while another was struck in occupied Crimea. The S-400 systems are used, among other roles, to launch missiles against ground targets.

In addition, a “Nebo-U” radar station in Crimea was also reported destroyed.

Brovdi said Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces carried out strikes on a range of high-value targets, including:

  • Two fuel tankers in the Azov Sea
  • A fuel depot in Kerch, occupied Crimea
  • Two S-400 “Triumf” air defence launchers
  • A Nebo-U radar system in Crimea

He described the night’s operation as part of sustained efforts to degrade Russian military logistics and air defence capabilities.
