Explosions occurred in Crimea at night: the occupiers announced the downing of ATACMS missiles

4.05.2024 – Translated from Ukrainian via Google and OFP

Explosions rocked the Ukrainian Crimea temporarily occupied by the Russians on the night of Saturday, May 4. The Ministry of Defense of the aggressor country, the Russian Federation, claims that their air defense shot down four ATACMS missiles.

The press service of the enemy’s Ministry of Defense reported on this on Saturday morning. They say that during the night, Russian military personnel “stopped an attempt by the Kyiv regime” to carry out a shelling “using American ATACMS operational-tactical missiles.”

“Using air defense systems on duty, four operational-tactical missiles were destroyed over the territory of the Crimean Peninsula,” the Russian Federation claims.

The aggressor state, which launched an unprovoked full-scale war against Ukraine, cynically called the said missile attack “terrorist.”

According to Telegram monitoring channels, the occupiers sounded the air raid alarm in a number of settlements.

Explosions were heard in Dzhankoy, Yevpatoriya, Pervomaisky, Krasnoperkopsk . Details are being confirmed.

Temporarily occupied Crimea

As OBOZ.UA previously wrote:

– Former Minister of Foreign Affairs of Lithuania and the country’s ambassador to Sweden Linas Linkevičius subtly hinted at the fragility of the Crimean (Kerch) bridge . In Russia they responded that on the “day of judgment” the politician would allegedly regret his statements.

– Military expert, reserve colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Petr Chernik said that the illegal Crimean bridge connecting the occupied Ukrainian peninsula with the Russian Federation will sooner or later come under attack by the Defense Forces. However, you need to be well-prepared for this attack: the salvo must be massive, because you need to simultaneously destroy not one or two sections of the crossing, but more.

  1. “The Ministry of Defense of the aggressor country, the Russian Federation, claims that their air defense shot down four ATACMS missiles.”

    Always assume the complete opposite of what a ruskie rat claims. I wonder which airfield or radars “intercepted” the missiles this time.
