Late in the evening of January 5, the Saki military airfield in Novofedorivka, which is located in occupied Crimea, came under attack.
“The 43rd Fighter Aviation Regiment serves as the backbone of the aviation group supporting Russian troops in southern Ukraine. It is armed with Su-24 bombers and Su-30 fighters,” wrote the Crimean Wind monitoring channel.
At around 11:45 p.m., at least five explosions were heard in temporarily occupied Yevpatoriya and the area around the city, a local resident told Suspilny.
“Subscribers report that in Mikhailovka, which is near a military airfield, fragments fell on a private house and a fire broke out,” the channel notes.
The patrisan movement ATESH also commented on the explosions in Crimea.
“We are waiting for results. All agents are working. So, for reference, in December we made more than 10 raids in Yevpatoria,” they wrote.
The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that Russian air defense allegedly “intercepted and destroyed 4 Ukrainian aircraft guided missiles over the Crimean Peninsula.”
