The press service of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine reports.
 
"As a result of the operation of the Group 13 unit, a Magura V5 maritime strike drone destroyed a speedboat of the Russian invaders," they confirmed. 
 
It is noted that the military conducted the operation in the area of the Vuzka Bay of the Yevpatoria district (formerly the Black Sea district) on the western coast of the occupied Crimea. The mission was made possible with the assistance of the United24 platform. 

 
"As the fear of Ukrainian attacks forces the occupiers to hide large ships of the Black Sea Fleet as far away from the peninsula as possible, combat work continues on high-speed maneuvering warships of the Russians, which are illegally in the Ukrainian territorial waters of Crimea," the intelligence emphasized. 
 
They also reminded that the Russian ships Caesar Kunikov, Ivanovets, Sergei Kotov, Akula and Serna were previously destroyed with the help of Magura V5 strike marine drones, and the Ivan Khurs was damaged.
