Drone Attack Sparks Explosions and Fire at Yalta Port in Occupied Crimea

  • A massive drone attack struck Crimea on the night of August 6, triggering explosions in Sevastopol, Feodosia, Kerch, Alushta, and the Hvardiiske military airfield simultaneously.
  • Russian forces utilize the Hvardiiske airfield to launch 'Shahed'-type attack drones. Eyewitnesses reported a large-scale fire and ammunition detonations there following the strikes.
  • In Feodosia, reports indicate a major fire broke out, likely targeting a concentration of Russian military equipment near the former 13th military town on the Kerch Highway.
  • Traffic on the Kerch Bridge was temporarily suspended amid the attack, while a powerful explosion near Cape Fiolent caused windows to rattle across the surrounding area.
  • There is currently no official confirmation regarding the attack's consequences. According to the Telegram channel 'Crimean Wind,' mobile fire teams were active in Sevastopol, though no air raid alert was issued.
