Officials appointed by Moscow claim that the Russian navy stopped a drone attack on the Sevastopol port, which is home to Moscow’s Black Sea Fleet, on Saturday.
The governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhayev, posted on Telegram, “Today, starting at 3:30 am for several hours, various air defence systems in Sevastopol repulsed drone attacks.”
Unmanned aerial aircraft (UAVs) have all been shot down.
The Russian navy is fending off a drone strike, according to Mr. Razvozhayev earlier.
Early on Saturday morning, he reported that “ships of the Black Sea Fleet are repelling a UVA (unmanned aerial vehicle) in Sevastopol bay.”
Despite claiming that “civilian infrastructure” had not been harmed, the governor indicated that the city’s services were on “alert.”
“One windowpane burst” in a hostel at an art institution close to the harbour, but “no harm was done,” he continued.
He urged city dwellers not to share videos of the incident on social media.
It should be obvious to everyone that such knowledge is crucial for Ukrainian Nazis to comprehend how our city’s defence is constructed, the man claimed.
Russia seized control of Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula in 2014.
In February of this year, it launched numerous attacks against Ukraine, including one from the Crimea.
The announcement was made as Ukrainian forces advanced on the Russian-occupied south in a counteroffensive.
According to city officials, the harbour was “temporarily” blocked to ferries and boats.
A drone allegedly struck a thermal power plant close to Sevastopol, according to Mr. Razvozhayev earlier this week.
A drone had also attacked the Russian fleet that was stationed in the port in July.
