On the night of July 12–13, 2026, units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces struck a number of key enemy targets.
The General Staff reported this .
“Seven tankers, five dry cargo ships, two tugs, and one ferry were struck in the waters of the Sea of Azov. In the temporarily occupied Crimea, the “Nebo-U” radar station and a launch pad for the S-400 anti-aircraft missile system in the Kerch area were struck,” the statement said.
The extent of the damage and the results of the attack are being determined.
As a reminder, satellite images have confirmed the results of the Ukrainian attack on the Russian “shadow fleet” in the Sea of Azov. The released images show at least two damaged tankers near the Kerch Strait.
