Explosions at Dzhankoi, a key Russian base in Crimea, are not claimed by Ukraine

Ukrainian authorities did not directly claim responsibility for Monday night’s strike in Dzhankoi in annexed Crimea, but said the damage serves to further “demilitarise Russia and prepare the Crimean peninsula for de-occupation”.

In an intelligence assessment published by the UK’s Ministry of Defence in 2022, it was noted that two of Russia’s most important military airfields in Crimea are located in Dzhankoi and Hvardiiske,
