The system is struck by a drone, although no follow-up footage confirms its destruction.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2265\" data-end=\"2570\">A second strike shows an OSA short range surface-to-air missile system positioned near a treeline. The system is hit on its side by a drone. A subsequent pass by another drone captures the OSA system burning, confirming its destruction. The OSA system is considered relatively rare within Russian service.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2572\" data-end=\"2755\">A further strike targets a Tunguska self-propelled anti-aircraft system. The vehicle is hit at the front, although no spotter footage is available to confirm whether it was destroyed.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2757\" data-end=\"3231\">Attention then shifts to a Buk air defence system, which is struck by a drone and subsequently confirmed destroyed. Follow-up footage shows the system burning intensely. The Buk system is described as Russia\u2019s only mid-range SAM platform and is shown deployed and active, although it reportedly fails to detect or intercept the incoming FP-2 drone. In the same sequence, additional aerial movement is visible, believed to be another FP-2 drone en route to a separate target.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3233\" data-end=\"3522\">The compilation then shows a strike on a fuel storage depot in Crimea. A fuel tank is seen burning following the impact of a drone, with follow-up footage confirming sustained fire. A second oil storage site in another location is also struck, with heavy burning reported after the attack.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3524\" data-end=\"3911\">Further strikes target what Ukrainian sources describe as Iskander missile storage facilities. Multiple warehouses are hit and set on fire. One structure is seen burning heavily, with indications that missile systems or launchers may have been inside at the time of impact. No spotter drone confirms full damage assessment, but the intensity of the fire suggests significant destruction.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3913\" data-end=\"4090\">A second Iskander related site is also struck, with two warehouses hit in separate drone passes. Both structures are set ablaze, with follow-up footage confirming ongoing fires.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4092\" data-end=\"4493\">The footage then shows repeated strikes on a facility described as a Rubicon drone storage site. Multiple FP-2 drones impact the complex, resulting in extensive fire damage. Follow-up aerial footage shows one building engulfed in flames, with ground imagery suggesting near total destruction of the warehouse. The scale of the strike indicates the site may have contained significant drone stockpiles.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4495\" data-end=\"4805\">The final segment of the compilation shows four separate clips of strikes against Russian logistics vehicles. These supply trucks are shown being targeted in different locations. Their destruction is assessed as reducing the ability of Russian forces to transport ammunition, fuel and food to front line units.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4807\" data-end=\"5035\">Ukrainian sources describe the overall operation as a coordinated series of strikes against high value military infrastructure across Crimea, including air defence systems, missile storage sites, fuel depots and logistics nodes.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Iskander Launcher Storage, Multiple SAM Systems, Oil Depots and Drone Storage Hit By FP-2 Drones\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_sT7gztmuy0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(CRIMEA) &#8211; Ukrainian forces have released a compilation of FP-2 drone strikes targeting a range of Russian military assets in Crimea, including air defence systems, missile storage sites, fuel depots and logistics infrastructure.
