Missile attack on the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in occupied Sevastopol
Adress: Ukraine, Crimea, Sevastopol, st. Voronina, 2
On September 22, during a meeting of the Russian military, several Storm Shadow cruise missiles hit the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in occupied Sevastopol. This attack was preceded by a massive drone attack. In general, many populated areas of Crimea are attacked again that day, but the attack on the headquarters overshadows everything. At first, the Crimean authorities try to pretend that nothing happened and that all the missiles were shot down, but the more information about this attack comes out, the harder it is to lie to the authorities. Judging by the dozens of ambulances seen on the streets, there was not just one death, as the Sevastopol authorities claim, but many more. It is interesting that the impact of several missiles was so accurate that people passing by the headquarters building were not harmed at all, even the glass in the windows of neighboring houses remained intact. Local telegram channels write about at least 30 wounded from the headquarters building, who were taken to hospitals. For the Russian Federation, and especially for Putin, this missile strike is tantamount to spitting in the face. Russian propaganda is so stunned that it is simply speechless for several hours.

According to UNIAN's SBU sources, there were at least 12 Su-24 and Su-30 fighters and «Pantsir-S1» on the airfield at the time.

The attacks were carried out by drones, which overloaded the Russian air defence system, and Neptune missiles were then launched. As a result, the occupiers' equipment was badly damaged and Russian cable channels reported at least 30 dead Russians.

In Crimea, near Tarkhankut, the Russians blew up the sunken ship «Ibrahim-Yakim»
Adress: Ukraine, AR Crimea, Tarkhankut
On 16 September, in occupied Crimea near Tarkhankut, the Russians blew up the remains of the «Ibrahim-Yakim», which sank in 2010. All that remained of the once huge ship was the superstructure, which housed the captain's bridge. The depth of the seabed at this site is no more than 10 metres. It was a popular spot for divers. Why the Russians blew it up is anyone's guess. Perhaps it served as a reference point for the Ukrainian forces during the attacks.
