The Special Operations Forces (SOF) of Ukraine have shown significant tactical advancement in their operations against Russian military infrastructures. Recently, the SOF struck a base storing Iskander missile systems in occupied Crimea, showcasing their strategic capabilities. Their operations extended deep into Russian territory with a significant strike on the Yaroslavl Oil Refinery, located 1,000 km from the frontline. This not only disrupted Russian logistics but also highlighted the reach of Ukrainian special operations. Additionally, the SOF effectively targeted enemy arsenals in Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia, dealing a blow to logistical and operational capabilities of the occupiers. These actions underscore the SOF's ongoing commitment to weakening enemy positions and reinforcing Ukraine's defensive and offensive operations in the disputed regions.
