A Ukrainian drone attack has hit a convoy of Russian trucks on the land corridor connecting Russia to occupied Crimea, according to footage posted on social media. The incident occurred near the Chongar checkpoint, on the Russian federal highway R-280 “Novorossiya”, one of the main supply routes to the Crimean peninsula.
The released footage shows a powerful explosion hitting several vehicles used by Russian forces. No details have been released about the damage or casualties from this attack. This attack comes at a time when Russian authorities continue to conduct lengthy vehicle checks at entry and exit points of occupied Crimea.
These checks have caused long traffic columns, creating situations that, according to the Ukrainian side, make vehicles easier targets for drone attacks. The land corridor to Crimea is an important logistical artery for Russian forces, especially for supplies and the movement of military equipment. /Telegraph
