Ukrainian Intelligence Conducts Special Operation in Russia’s Primorsky Krai Targeting Marine Battalion

The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine reported conducting a special operation on the territory of the Russian Federation, in the area of Shchytova in Primorsky Krai. The focus is on the 47th Separate Airborne Assault Battalion of the 155th Separate Guards Marine Brigade, which took part in battles near Kyiv, Vuhledar, Mariupol, and also on the Kursk and Pokrovsk directions.

According to sources in the security services, this unit distinguished itself by particular brutality toward the local population and Ukrainian prisoners of war.

At 9 a.m. local time, a powerful explosion occurred in the parking lot of the military unit, followed by another. According to Russian sources, a large amount of equipment and security service personnel arrived at the scene. According to reports, a helicopter was lifted into the air, and near the entrance to the village of Shchytova, the area near the administrative buildings and parking lots was cordoned off. Traffic was partially restricted; law enforcement officers are inspecting all vehicles.

The explosions are attributed to a possible incident with gas equipment.

According to the source, there are reports of dead and wounded among the Russian occupiers. Eyewitnesses say there are many ambulances on the scene.
