Ukrainian drone attacks on fuel infrastructure across the Kerch Strait have triggered fires in Kerch and Port Kavkaz, forcing Russian officials to restrict fuel supplies in occupied Sevastopol. <\/p>\n
The Kyiv Independent reports that Ukrainian forces struck fuel transit terminals and port infrastructure on both sides of the Kerch Strait overnight Saturday. Social media footage confirms a fire at an oil terminal in occupied Kerch, alongside reports of a blaze at Port Kavkaz on the eastern side of the strait.<\/p>\n
Authorities temporarily suspended traffic on the Crimean Bridge, which connects the Crimean Peninsula to the Taman Peninsula, shortly before midnight.<\/p>\n
Russian governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhayev, stated that the city repelled a Ukrainian armed forces attack overnight, claiming four unmanned aerial vehicles were downed. By Sunday morning, he announced that fuel deliveries were delayed, with refueling now restricted to priority vehicles only. He later reported the downing of two additional drones.<\/p>\n
Sergey Aksyonov, head of the Republic of Crimea and a member of the United Russia party, confirmed that the drone strikes on the Kerch Peninsula resulted in four deaths and twenty-eight injuries.<\/p>\n
Maria Piechowska, an analyst at the Polish Institute of International Affairs, notes that strikes on Crimean transport infrastructure increase the costs of Russian occupation and directly impact civilians and tourists. These logistical disruptions and periodic shortages challenge the Russian narrative of “normalization,” potentially altering public perception regarding the true cost of the war.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
