Summary
A Russian naval vessel in Crimea near the Kerch Bridge was hit by Ukraine, one day after a separate drone strike damaged the missile corvette Boykiy in dry dock near St. Petersburg.
Ryazan’s gunpowder factory was also struck, extending the campaign beyond naval targets as Ukraine pressures Russian military supply and production nodes.
Russian warbloggers said truck parks along the southern logistics route have become easy drone targets, with one hit reportedly burning several vehicles amid a broader transport bottleneck.
Crimea is already facing acute fuel shortages, with reports that even mobile air-defense fire teams lack fuel, underscoring the strain on Russia’s rear-area support network.
The latest strikes fit a wider Ukrainian effort to disrupt Russian logistics from Crimea to St. Petersburg while frontline fighting remains intense around Kostyantynivka and Kherson.
