Guard Intelligence soldiers destroyed a Russian Tuna-type vessel in Crimea with a MAGURA V5 drone. Three more watercraft damaged

On the night of August 8-9, 2024, near the settlement of Chernomorskoye in the temporarily occupied Crimea, soldiers of the special unit of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine "Group 13" with the help of the MAGURA V5 strike sea drone destroyed another vessel of the Russian occupiers - a high-speed boat of the KS 701 project of the "Tunet" type. This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the press center of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense.

As noted, as a result of the operation, three more watercraft of the invaders were also damaged. Their type is being established.

"This is not the first "Tunet" shot down off the coast of the peninsula: reconnaissance aircraft destroyed two Russian vessels of this type, and damaged two more in May of this year," the Main Intelligence Directorate reminds.

The Muscovites used high-speed transport and landing boats of the KS 701 project in occupied Crimea to patrol the waters and for logistics.

The Main Intelligence Directorate also emphasizes that, in total, 18 ships of the aggressor state Russia were successfully hit with the help of these Ukrainian-made sea drones, 9 of which were destroyed.
