Ukrainian Drones Target Russian Naval Base in Caspian Sea

A Ukrainian drone strike hit Russian naval vessels stationed in Kaspiysk, marking a significant escalation in the conflict.

Ukrainian drones attacked a port in Kaspiysk, Russia, where Russian Navy ships are stationed, according to Ukrainian and Russian officials.
The strike reportedly damaged at least two missile ships, named Dagestan and Tatarstan, though these reports have not been independently verified.
Russia's Defense Ministry has not confirmed the presence of Ukrainian drones over the Dagestan region during the attack.
Open-source intelligence and Russian Telegram channels shared unverified footage of drones heading toward port facilities and vessels.
This marks the first reported Ukrainian strike on Russian naval assets in the Caspian Sea, expanding Kyiv's campaign against high-value targets.
