Ukrainian drones targeted a dozen Russian oil tankers in the Sea of Azov, according to a statement from the Ukrainian military released on Thursday, July 9.
This latest operation is part of an ongoing campaign by Ukraine aimed at disrupting fuel supplies to Russian forces and isolating Moscow-occupied Crimea.
The attacks represent another escalation in the conflict, with Ukraine employing drone technology to strike at Russia's energy infrastructure and logistical capabilities.
The military's announcement did not provide specific details on the extent of damage to the tankers or any potential casualties.
