Ukraine's Pressure on Russian Forces in Crimea

Ukraine has been ramping up pressure on Russian forces in Crimea, focusing on destructive attacks on key infrastructure like bridges and military bases. This is part of Ukraine's broader strategy to support their ongoing land offensive in the Zaparosha region and to challenge Russia's control of shipping routes in the Black Sea. Despite having a limited navy, Ukraine has been utilizing deep-strike capabilities, including drones and missiles, to target Russian warships and defense systems. These tactics have resulted in the sinking or damage of numerous Russian warships and have changed Russia's fleet operations and posture. While Russia still holds the upper hand in the Black Sea, Ukraine's successes pose a significant challenge to Russia's dominance.
