Ukraine’s armed forces report striking eight Russian fuel tankers during a night operation, described as targeting the so-called “shadow fleet” used to supply Crimea. Multiple outlets report that the vessels are linked to sanctioned Russian entities and are operating in or near the Sea of Azov, a route frequently associated with fuel deliveries to the occupied peninsula. Alongside the tankers, one source also reports hits on other maritime vessels, including a ferry and a cargo ship. Ukraine also states that drones were used to strike additional targets, including military sites and infrastructure supporting logistics and energy in Crimea, in an effort to disrupt fuel supplies to Russian forces on the peninsula. The reports characterize the action as part of an ongoing campaign to undermine maritime and logistical routes supplying occupied Crimea. The outlets largely rely on Ukraine’s statements about the number and type of targets struck; they do not provide independent verification or information on any damage assessments beyond the claims reported by the sources.
