Ukrainian defense forces struck Russian air defense systems in temporarily occupied Crimea and a drone storage facility in Donetsk, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported.
In Crimea, Ukrainian forces targeted a "Nebo-U" radar station near Yevpatoria and a "Pantsir-S1" missile-gun system near Khutorok. In the temporarily occupied Donetsk region, they hit a site used for storing and preparing Russian military drones. The scale of enemy losses is still being assessed.
Earlier, on January 13, 2026, Ukrainian forces carried out a missile strike on the “Atlant Aero” plant in Taganrog, Russia, using domestically produced missiles. The facility handles the full production cycle of Molniya strike-reconnaissance drones and manufactures components for Orion drones used by Russian occupation forces.
Additionally, on January 11, Ukraine struck key Russian military-support targets, including three Lukoil drilling platforms in the Caspian Sea, a Buk-M3 SAM launcher in temporarily occupied Luhansk, and a logistics warehouse of Russia’s 49th Army in Kherson.
