(MENAFN- UkrinForm) According to Ukrinform, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine reported this on Facebook.

It is noted that on the night of March 24, Ukrainian intelligence officers tracked a convoy of Bastion-M launchers on the peninsula as it moved toward its positions and delivered precise strikes against it.

As a result, one of the enemy's launchers, along with two expensive Zircon missiles, was destroyed, and another was damaged. Seven Russian soldiers were also killed or wounded.
