Unmanned aerial vehicles have reduced the capacity of the Kerch ferry crossing by 75%.
As a result of the operation of the Unmanned Systems Forces “MoLoChKa”, the capacity of the Kerch ferry crossing was reduced by 75%.
This was reported by the Commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces, Robert Brovdy (Madyar).
According to him, before the operation began, cargo transportation was provided by four regular ferries – Lavrentiy, Panagia, Eisk, and Maria, as well as the reserve vessel SKS One.
Magyar noted that as of July 19, the SKS One vessel was completely destroyed following the strikes on July 7, 12, and 13. It sank in the port of Kamysh-Burun and cannot be repaired.
The ferries “Eisk” and “Maria” also suffered multiple damage in July. According to the commander, they were towed to the port of Kerch, and there are no plans to return these vessels to service.
Furthermore, the Lavrentiy and Panagia were damaged as a result of joint operations by the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), and the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR). Due to the damage, the ferries are unable to move independently, so the occupiers are using them as non-self-propelled barges, towing them with the help of tugboats.
Commenting on the results of the operation, Madyar also made a sarcastic appeal to the Russians to transfer another vessel to Crimea, hinting that it could become the target of Ukrainian strikes.
Also on the night of July 19, units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ unmanned aerial vehicle system struck 13 power substations in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and four vessels of the Russian shadow fleet in the Black Sea.
