Ukraine announced on Wednesday, July 15, that its unmanned assets struck 20 Russian vessels in the Black Sea during a night operation. According to Robert Brovdi, commander of Ukraine's drone forces, known by the nickname "Madyar," 17 of them were oil tankers. hnonline.sk ↗
According to available information, the operation involved vessels described as part of Russia's shadow fleet, which is used to transport oil and circumvent sanctions restrictions. Brovdi stated that with this move, Ukraine has launched a new phase of the operation aimed at clearing the Black Sea of Russian vessels. idnes.cz ↗
The Ukrainian side reports that it struck 90 targets over the past week. The latest attack thus fits into a broader series of strikes against Russian naval and logistics infrastructure. Available data do not make clear the extent of damage sustained by individual ships or whether the attack caused any casualties. ta3.com ↗
The Black Sea remains one of the key theaters of the war, since Russia's energy and military transport capacities pass through its maritime routes. Further developments will show whether Ukrainian attacks on tankers and support vessels will limit Moscow's ability to use the shadow fleet in the region. ct24.ceskatelevize.cz ↗
