Ukraine is intensifying its drone and missile operations targeting Russian supply lines in occupied Crimea, leading to mounting logistical challenges throughout the region. Reports indicate fuel shortages in Sevastopol and various other cities, prompting officials to limit supplies strictly to emergency and military needs. Ukrainian authorities claim that freight movement on crucial military supply routes has plummeted by 71% in just a fortnight, decreasing from approximately 3,800 to 1,100 vehicles per day. Damage inflicted on bridges and transport routes is hindering both civilian movement and military operations, underscoring Crimea's escalating susceptibility as the conflict persists.
