During the night of August 6, Ukrainian special forces conducted a raid on enemy positions on the Tendra Spit, a strategic location occupied by Russian forces.
The operation involved the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (DIU) and the Artan active action unit, supported by the DIU Naval Center.
The raid was carried out under the cover of darkness, with Ukrainian forces landing on the spit using high-speed boats.
They deployed FPV drones to destroy enemy equipment and fortifications, including armored vehicles like the MT-LB and an electronic warfare system.
According to the Ukrainian military news site Militarnyi, the raid inflicted losses on Russian personnel, though the exact number is still being determined.
The DIU confirmed that the operation was successfully completed, with all Ukrainian operators withdrawing without any casualties.
The DIU emphasized that this raid is part of a broader strategy by Ukraine's Security and Defense Forces to reclaim occupied territories.
Raids like these have become more frequent, with some making headlines, such as a reported special operation in Crimea in August 2016, where Ukrainian forces also inflicted losses on Russian troops before safely withdrawing.
