On the night of August 7, Ukrainian Armed Forces units destroyed an early-warning radar, UAV relay stations, and other enemy targets in the temporarily occupied territories.

This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

As part of efforts to reduce the offensive capabilities of the Russian aggressor, the Ukrainian Defense Forces struck an early-warning radar station near Olenivka and a facility used for storing, preparing, and launching attack UAVs in the Hvardiyiske area

The press service noted that both facilities are located in the temporarily occupied Ukrainian Crimea.

The General Staff also confirmed the destruction of two ground-based control repeaters for “Geran”/“Gerbera”-type strike UAVs—in Olenivka (Autonomous Republic of Crimea) and Zalizny Port in the Kherson region.

Ground-based relay stations ensure stable communication and the transmission of commands between operators and strike unmanned aerial vehicles. They increase the range and effectiveness of strike drones

In addition, Ukrainian troops struck an enemy fuel and lubricants depot near Melitopol and a repair unit of the occupying forces near Yakymivka in Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

As a reminder, Group 13, a special operations unit of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, destroyed a Russian “Pantsir-S1” anti-aircraft missile and gun system worth $15 million, as well as a military crane belonging to the occupiers, in the temporarily occupied Crimea.
