Missile debris in Sevastopol prompts plan for beach shelters
For many months, Ukrainians have been attacking targets in occupied Crimea. During one of these attacks, debris from a launched missile reportedly fell on residents relaxing on the beach in Sevastopol. A peculiar announcement recently appeared on the beaches near the city, indicating that the authorities plan to build shelters there.
Sevastopol, located on the western side of the Crimean Peninsula, is the main base of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. After a series of attacks, there are now few Russian ships stationed there, but it remains a target for Ukrainians.
On June 23rd, local occupation authorities reported the shooting down of five Ukrainian missiles, with fragments falling on beaches in the districts of Uchkuyevka and Lyubimovka. Five people were reported dead, and 150 were injured, according to Russian media.
On Thursday, Crimski Viatr, a Telegram service, published a photo of an announcement at the entrance to one of Sevastopol's beaches.
Will they build shelters on the beaches?
"Attention! This beach is not equipped with adequate shelters. Staying here during an attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine is not safe," reads the announcement.
The continuation of the announcement is even more interesting: "The authorities of Sevastopol recommend refraining from staying on the beach until the installation of reinforced concrete protective structures."
According to Crimski Viatr, such announcements have appeared on all the beaches on the northern side of Sevastopol, including Uchkuyevka Beach.
"The special military operation (this is what Russians call the war in Ukraine - ed.) is going according to plan," commented Krymski Wiatr on the appearance of these notices.
