The resistance sources highlighted the base's importance, emphasizing the impact this strike could have on Ukrainian military capabilities.
According to the Russian Defence Ministry, the interceptions occurred without causing casualties or significant damage.
Despite the intensity of the attack, initial reports indicate that Kyiv sustained no significant damage.
The sinking of such a vessel marks a notable achievement for the Ukrainian forces amid ongoing maritime tensions in the Black Sea.
Among the injured is Ilya Ponomaryov, a former Russian lawmaker and outspoken Kremlin critic who has resided in Ukraine for several years.
The Russian defence ministry reported that its air defence systems were actively engaged in repelling what they described as a coordinated Ukrainian assault.
Positioned near Toretsk, the village holds strategic importance due to its proximity to crucial transport routes and its potential to serve as a staging ground for further Russian advances.
According to the Ukrainian army’s General Staff, Russian forces mounted 15 assaults in an effort to penetrate the Ukrainian lines.
"The fire was one of the most challenging we have faced in recent times," said Sergei Ivanov, the chief of the local fire brigade.
The arrests, which took place over the past few days, are part of a broader effort by Russian authorities to clamp down on activities perceived as pro-Ukrainian within the occupied areas.
