# Explosions in Crimea: Strikes on Oil Depots and Logistics on the Night of April 8

Powerful explosions and gunfire were heard during the night in occupied Crimea. Witnesses report hearing the sounds of drones, followed by strikes. Preliminary data suggests that strategically important infrastructure objects, including oil depots, came under fire.

### Targets of the Strikes: From Feodosia to Sevastopol

The most active actions were recorded in the Feodosia area. The "ATESH" agency confirmed reports of explosions in the immediate vicinity of an oil depot. The situation is complicated by the fact that the strikes may have been carried out not only by unmanned aerial vehicles but also by missiles.

The geography of the attacks covers a significant part of the peninsula. Partisan units reported explosions in Dzhankoy and Sevastopol. The Telegram channel "Crimean Wind" recorded explosions in Simferopol at 03:00. Later, a source reported a probable strike on an oil depot in the settlement of Lenino.

### Video Footage and Consequences

Footage has appeared online where the humming of drones is clearly audible, followed by the sounds of explosions. Visual materials confirm the scale of the night's events. In one of the frames, a serviceman is seen inspecting the debris of a shot-down drone near the gates of a building, indicating attempts by the Russian side to intercept the threat.

### Context: A Series of Strikes on Logistics

These events are a continuation of a series of attacks by the Defense Forces of Ukraine. On the night of April 8, units struck objects supporting the military logistics of Russian troops. Over the past two weeks, Ukrainian scouts have already inflicted eight precise strikes on key Russian objects in Crimea.

Previously, RBK-Ukraine reported the successful destruction of a high-value target — a Russian radar system from the S-400 surface-to-air missile system. The nighttime explosions in Crimea confirm that pressure on the enemy's military infrastructure is being maintained and intensified.
