Kiev attempts to attack Crimea with S-200 missile, Russian air defense intercepts it
Kiev attempted to attack Crimea with an S-200 surface-to-air missile re-equipped into a strike weapon during the night, while Russia's air defense capabilities intercepted it, Russia's Defense Ministry reported on Saturday.
"During the night on August 19, the Kiev regime attempted to carry out a terrorist attack using an S-200 surface-to-air missile re-equipped into a strike weapon on the Crimean territory. Russia's air defense capabilities timely detected and intercepted it in the air," the ministry said, adding that no casualties or damage on the ground were reported.
Russia's Defense Ministry said earlier that on August 12, Kiev attempted to attack the Crimean bridge with S-200 surface-to-air missiles re-equipped into strike weapons twice. They were detected and intercepted by the Russian air defense systems.
