Ukrainian SOF Raid Russian Black Sea Drilling Platform

Ukrainian SOF released footage of an amphibious night raid that targeted a Russian-controlled drilling platform in the Black Sea. The structure was being used by the Russians for communications and target development for operations inside Ukraine.


The Ukrainian operators seized the sensitive electronics and set explosive to the antenna, which detonated once they were exfiltrated and at a safe distance. The operation will likely degrade Russian operations in southern Ukraine.
