Crimea repelled a morning attack by Ukrainian drones. A civilian was injured in Sevastopol

CrimeaPRESS reports:

This morning the western coast of Crimea, including Sevastopol, was attacked by enemy drones. The air attack was repulsed, but there was damage to the residential area and casualties. A resident of the northern side of Sevastopol was seriously injured.

On the morning of November 7, an attempt by the Kyiv regime to carry out a terrorist attack using seventeen aircraft-type UAVs against targets on the territory of the Russian Federation was stopped. Duty air defense systems destroyed nine Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles and eight intercepted them over the Black Sea and the territory of the Republic of Crimeasays the report of the Russian Ministry of Defense.

The dry language of the official message dilutes the channel «Fisherman». According to the publication, all 17 kamikaze drones started from the Odessa region.

Crews of the Pantsir-S1 air defense missile system of the 31st Air Force and Air Defense Division shot down nine drones: seven on approach to the Belbek airfield, two at the Saki airfield. Another eight were suppressed by electronic warfare. The drones landed by electronic warfare crews mostly fell into the sea. However, one of them collapsed on a residential building in the Orlovka/Andreevka area: one person was injuredreports “Rybar”.

Experts clarify: before the raid, an American RQ-4B UAV was operating in the Black Sea, which conducted reconnaissance for about a day off the coast of the Krasnodar Territory, the Crimean Bridge and the southern coast of Crimea. And an hour before the start of the attack, he left the Black Sea.

Drone attack, as in previous times, resembles a “probing” of the air defense system and an assessment of the nature of the actions of the 31st division. After the last three UAV raids last week, the Ukrainian Armed Forces launched a massive missile strike on southern Russian territories.

Considering the intensity of American UAV operations along the borders of Russia, the attention of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at airfields in Crimea, especially Belbek, where MiG-31BM fighters are stationed, is significant. And after the effective strike on Kerch on November 4, an attack should be expected on both the bridge and the Crimean airfields— emphasizes “Rybar”.

According to updated information from the Sevastopol Rescue Service, debris from the downed UAV also fell in the courtyard of one of the private houses in Orlovka. A man was injured. According to information from doctors, in addition to the fracture, the man has a penetrating wound to the chest and abdomen; his condition is serious.— told Governor of Sevastopol Mikhail Razvozhaev. — Information was also recorded about the fall of fragments of downed drones in the Kachi area. No serious damage to buildings and communications was recorded in Sevastopol.
