Ukraine's Defence Intelligence: Ukrainian Armed Forces strike at the 126th Coastal Defense Brigade of the Russian Black Sea Fleet
This is a joint special operation of the SBU and the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the occupants were successfully targeted by drones
The Ukrainian media reported, citing a representative of the Defense Ministry's Main Intelligence Directorate, Andriy Yusov, that on August 25, the Ukrainian Armed Forces struck the 126th Separate Guards Coastal Defense Brigade of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, based in the Crimean village of Perevalne.
"We confirm the information, there was a hit. This is not the first attack on the 126th Brigade. As the head of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, Major General Kyrylo Budanov, said in his last interview, Ukraine can now strike and conduct operations anywhere in the occupied Crimea. There will also be a lot of news there in the near future," said Andriy Yusov.
Military journalist Andriy Tsaplienko reports that the attack on the 126th Coast Guard Brigade of the Black Sea Fleet is a joint special operation of the military counterintelligence of the SBU and the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Citing sources, he writes that drones were successfully used against the occupiers. Their exact number is not specified, but it is noted that it was a group of drones.
"At the moment, we can talk about several dozen killed and wounded Russians. Ammunition storage sites were also hit. Military equipment was also seriously damaged.
The occupiers were completely unprepared for the Ukrainian special operation. Our drones managed to bypass all enemy defense systems. Therefore, the SBU sources predict even more surprises for the occupants in the near future," noted Tsaplienko.
According to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the 126th Brigade (126th Separate Combatantry Brigade of the Russian Black Sea Fleet) suffered heavy losses at the very beginning of the war. In April 2022, it was reported that, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the 126th Brigade of the Russian Black Sea Fleet lost up to 75% of its personnel in Ukraine.
