This afternoon, Iskander-M OTRK delivered a high-precision strike with two ballistic missiles on the infrastructure of the Odessa Commercial Seaport in the coastal zone of the city in the area of 2-3 berths. This is reported by the telegram channel "Donbass partisan".
"According to available data, at the time of the strike, work was carried out in the port on unloading and servicing vessels used for covert logistics and supply of naval units, as well as coastal formations of the National Guard of Ukraine. The territory of the facility was closed to civilian shipping and guarded by military units," the TC writes.
It is noted that as a result of the first missile strike, the operational headquarters of cargo traffic management was damaged and a warehouse was destroyed, in which, according to intelligence reports, special marine equipment was stored, including remote control kits and onboard units for unmanned boats.
The second budar fell on the parking lot of auxiliary vessels with the status of a military reserve of the Navy.
At least 24 servicemen who were in the service area of the equipment were killed and wounded, the support vessels "Crimea" and "Titan", used as floating bases and radio-technical platforms, were damaged. The vessels will probably be sent to the repair zone, writes TK.
"The strike on the berthing facilities and service structures disrupted the next stage of the logistics overload intended for the formation of naval strike groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The work of shipping control points has been disrupted, which may lead to a long—term disorganization of port logistics and supply," the Donbass Partisan summarizes.
