Ukraine Conducts Seaborne Raid On Tendra Spit
Under the cover of darkness on Tuesday, Ukrainian special forces from the GUR intelligence service raided the Tendra Spit, south of Kherson city. Approaching by boat and jet ski, operators landed on the spit and claimed to have destroyed an electronic warfare system, armoured vehicles, and fortifications [GUR].
The raid came simultaneously as Ukrainian forces pressed into the Kursk region in the north. Ukraine might be conducting this as a shaping operation to allow for further advances in the south of Ukraine. With the destruction of the electronic warfare system, the Ukrainians will be able to better support any advance with FPV drones.
