On the night of August 3 to 4, explosions occurred in the temporarily occupied Crimea, Feodosia. Russian Defense Ministry accuses Ukraine of drone attack

The Russian ministry wrote about this on Telegram.

"Last night, an attempt by the Kyiv regime to carry out a terrorist attack by unmanned aircraft on objects on the territory of the Crimean peninsula was stopped," the statement said.

The enemy Ministry of Defense claims that 10 UAVs were allegedly destroyed by regular air defense systems, and three more drones were suppressed by electronic warfare.

"There were no casualties or destruction as a result of the stopped terrorist attack," the Russians say.

Crimean guerrillas also reported nighttime explosions in Feodosia.

Reports on explosions in the temporarily occupied Feodosia began to arrive after 03:30. Eyewitnesses reported numerous explosions. They also wrote about the work of Russian air defense and the sounds of drones.

The guerrillas noted that firefighters and ambulances were driving around the city in the middle of the night.

In a commentary to the propaganda outlet RIA-Novosti, the so-called advisor to the head of Crimea, Kryuchkov, reported on the alleged work of air defense.

Attacks in Crimea

On July 17, in the morning, there were explosions on the Crimean Bridge. The occupation authorities said it was an "emergency event" caused by the Ukrainian military. They found damage to the road and reported two deaths.

On July 18, the Russian Ministry of Defense accused Ukraine again of attacking Crimea with drones.

On the night of July 19, people in Russian-occupied Crimea heard explosions. A warehouse with ammunition exploded at the Old Crimea training ground.

On July 20, the occupiers blamed Ukraine for a drone attack on Crimea. They said four buildings were damaged, and a teenager was killed.

On July 22, drones attacked infrastructure facilities on the peninsula. An oil depot in Oktyabrske village caught fire, and an ammunition depot at the airfield exploded. Railway traffic was stopped.

On July 24, the occupying authorities of Crimea reported a drone attack on an ammunition warehouse in the Dzhankoy district, and nearby villages were evacuated.

On Friday, July 28, an ammunition depot of the occupiers exploded in occupied Sevastopol. The GUR reported the sabotage.

Ukrainian forces are also targeting Russian logistics routes to disrupt their plans and supplies between Crimea and the mainland. On the morning of July 29, the Armed Forces of Ukraine carried out an air attack on the Chongar Bridge.

On August 1, there were explosions in Crimea, possibly in the Balaklava area, where the Russian Navy base, a thermal power plant, and warehouses of ammunition and equipment are located.

The Ukrainian Navy's spokesman, Dmytro Pletenchuk, said that the Naval Forces of Ukraine were not involved in the attack on the Sergey Kotov and Vasily Bykov ships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. 

On August 3, Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Oleksiy Danilov confirmed the involvement of the Security Service of Ukraine in two operations to blow up the Kerch Bridge in Crimea.
