Sofiia Syngaivska reports in Defense Express:
A recent attack on Russia’s Kaspiysk naval base on the Caspian Sea coast demonstrates Ukraine’s growing capabilities to launch long-range drone strikes. Footage reveals Ukrainian kamikaze drones, likely based on the A-22 light aircraft, targeting the heavily fortified base. Kaspiysk, located over 1,500 kilometers from Ukraine’s border, is a critical asset for Russia's military. Home to the Caspian Flotilla, it houses five corvettes equipped with the Kalibr cruise missiles, giving it a formidable missile launch capacity of up to 40 missiles. This recent strike appears to be a preventive measure aimed at reducing the threat of these missiles being used against Ukrainian targets.
