“If the Ukrainian armed forces close these two roads in the north [rāda kartē – red.] and will destroy this bridge that connects Russia, in fact the Crimean peninsula will remain an island at the moment – it will be isolated from Russia,” explained Lt. Col. Anita Pizele, National Guard staff officer, in the TV24 program “Actual about the war in Ukraine”, commenting on the current events in Crimea, where this week in Sevastopol a missile the strike damaged a ship repair factory and, according to Russian media, killed two and injured 24 people, and set two ships under repair on fire.

Therefore, if the Ukrainians were to do it, they would no longer be able to provide logistics services in Crimea. “So these ships, which are amphibious ships, they can carry about ten battle tanks and 300 soldiers. They can transport about 500 tons of cargo – this means that they can transfer one company of tanks, or one company to armored personnel carriers – vehicles of various modifications from ten to fifteen,” said lieutenant colonel Pizele. They are the landing ships that should be destroyed first, which they “care to do”.
Can it therefore be concluded that all the activation that has also started in the Black Sea – the destruction of these ships this week in Sevastopol, is likely to be followed by similar operations in the future? Pizele agreed that ships in the Black Sea are “quite vulnerable” objects, not needles in the sea that can be hidden. “Someone asked me earlier how far those freed towers and platforms are, they are about 50 to 150 kilometers – four platforms from this cape [rāda kartē – red.] is the closest, the others are a little further away,” commented Pizele.

This week in Sevastopol, Russian-occupied Crimea, a missile strike damaged a ship repair factory, killing two and injuring 24, according to Russian media, and setting fire to two ships under repair.
The diesel-electric submarine “Rostov na Donu” and the large amphibious assault ship “Minsk”, which were in the dry dock for repairs, caught fire. In the factory named after “Sevmorzavod” or Sergo Ordzhonikidze, ships are built, as well as warships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet are repaired. At least three powerful explosions took place on the territory of the factory, according to videos posted on social networks.
On the other hand, strong explosions were heard in Eupatoria, in Russian-occupied Crimea, on the morning of Thursday, September 14, while the representative of the Armed Forces of Ukraine refused to reveal more details and stated that “one should enjoy the process”. Residents of the city reported on social networks that drones were flying in the city and loud explosions were heard.
