Ukrainian special forces launched a powerful attack on the Russian air base in Crimea. This was reported by the American newspaper The Washington Post on August 12, citing information provided by a Ukrainian official on condition of anonymity. He did not tell the details of the operation.

According to the statement of the Ukrainian Air Force, at least nine Russian military aircraft were destroyed at the base. If these reports are confirmed, the losses in Sakai will become the biggest losses of the Russian Air Force in one day. As a result, it will be more difficult for Moscow to attack Ukrainian cities.
