Special Operations Forces reported this on Telegram, Ukrinform reported.
According to intelligence, the Russians used one of the illegally seized production platforms to enhance the operation of the Iranian-made Mohajer-6 drone, installing equipment that increased its range and radius of operation.
The invaders used this UAV to conduct reconnaissance activities and subsequent attacks with Shahed-type kamikaze drones on critical infrastructure in southern Ukraine.
The enemy also installed a Neva-B radar station on the platform to detect surface objects (from motor boats to ships), which was used to monitor the situation in the northwestern part of the Black Sea.
Prepared thoroughly, the group of the 73rd Maritime Center of the SSO began to destroy enemy targets.

After special operations and clearing the area, the facility was mined. After moving to a safe distance, the combat team blew up the enemy target.
It is reported that as a result of the special operation, Ukrainian soldiers captured important equipment of the invaders and blew up a mast with an antenna.
