Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk confirmed on Telegram that the Saki airfield in Crimea was hit.

"Unfortunately, our Air Force has lost another command post in Crimea! Once again, I thank our pilots for their excellent work!" he added.

The guerrillas confirmed that the radar and control centre in charge of air defence for the whole of Crimea was hit in Yevpatoriya.

The Crimean guerrilla movement Atesh has conducted further reconnaissance of the Ukrainian Defence Forces strike on the military unit near Yevpatoriya, which was hit by a missile on 4 January and passed the information to the Ukrainian military.

According to local agents, in addition to the station itself, the command post responsible for a secure communication channel with the Kremlin, including the coordination of air defence across the peninsula, was also hit.
