According to the Ukrainian military, the Unmanned Systems Forces (USF) have expanded their maritime drone campaign beyond the Sea of Azov and into the Black Sea, claiming 136 Russian vessels have been struck since July 6. The maritime campaign is part of a broader Ukrainian effort to systematically isolate Crimea by targeting the logistics network that sustains Russian forces. In recent weeks, Ukraine has struck bridges, rail lines, ferries, fuel depots, fuel trucks, and now maritime shipping, aiming to disrupt the flow of personnel, equipment, ammunition, and fuel to the peninsula. The campaign is having an effect, with fuel shortages reportedly forcing authorities in Crimea to restrict fuel sales to prioritize military and government operations, increasing pressure on Russian logistics supporting the occupation.
