Explosions, fire reported at military airfield in occupied Crimea
by Rachel Amran and Dinara Khalilova April 17, 2024 6:34 AM
Explosions were reported in the town of Dzhankoi in occupied Crimea near a military airfield during the early hours of April 17, according to Russian-affiliated telegram channels. Following the explosions, a large-scale fire reportedly broke out at the airfield.
A Moscow-installed official in the Crimean illegal occupation government later announced the closure of a highway linking Dzhankoy with the village of Pobiedne.

Russian troops begin to abandon Kharabaj, marking the end of the humanitarian operation that began in 2020. During the three years, the complete fall of the region under the control of the Azeri authorities was avoided. However, this only delayed the inevitable. Now Azerbaijan, having regained full control of sovereignty over its territory, looks to the west in search of initiating an irredentist process over Armenia that will allow it to unite its territory of Nakhichevan and therefore connect Baku with Ankara by land. One war ended and another could begin in the near future

Due to the cooling and cloudy weather, electricity consumption is rapidly increasing, — "Ukrenergo".
This morning its level is 6.5% higher than yesterday.
"In order to cover such growth, it is necessary to additionally include 3-4 units at thermal power plants. But now there is no such possibility - thermal power plants are one of the main targets of russian missile strikes," the company explained.

?????????? Regarding the missile strike on Dzhankoi
Last night, the AFU launched an attack on the airfield in Dzhankoi. Around 12 ATACMS operational-tactical missiles were utilized for the strike, likely originating from the Kherson region.
?? The assault was executed in two phases. The initial strike involved seven missiles, seemingly equipped with cluster warheads, while the second wave deployed at least five. Some equipment at the airfield sustained damage, along with one of the buildings.
?? The attack could have employed both MGM-140A with a range of up to 165 km and MGM-140B with a combat radius of 300 km. By launching from the outskirts of Kherson, the AFU can easily reach Dzhankoi, even with the initial versions of ATACMS.
??Similar to previous strikes, an American RQ-4B drone freely patrolled the airspace south of Crimea, overseeing the operation.
However, even in its absence, the adversary obtained the necessary information. Clear footage of the attacks is available on the Internet, thanks to the actions of pro-Ukrainian residents of the city, as well as some minors.
The question remains as to why residents of Russian Crimea are seemingly untroubled by the repercussions of such actions. The lack of concrete punitive measures hampers the apprehension and prosecution of such individuals, thereby endangering our military personnel.
??Meanwhile, Ukrainian forces are actively preparing for larger-scale assaults on the peninsula. A few days ago, there was an unsuccessful attempt to target the control point in Berdiansk, followed by today's attack on the airfield.
The objective is clear. Disrupt the coordination of our units by neutralizing command posts and causing significant damage to air defense forces. Achieving these dual aims, particularly with the fleet already weakened, is crucial for the AFU before targeting the Crimean Bridge.
