 Ukrainian strikes on Crimea are having major psychological and operational effects on Moscow's forces, Western officials have told journalists.

Explosions at the Saki airbase on 9 August and other assaults have put more than half of the Black Sea fleet's naval jets out of action, they said. The fleet has a revered history, but it has suffered a series of humiliations since the invasion began in February. "This has been 11 days which has seen Crimea destabilised in a way few predicted," says BBC's Ukraine Correspondent James Waterhouse. Following the most recent attacks this month, scores of Russian holidaymakers were seen fleeing the peninsula, which was previously untouched by fighting.

GENEVA —  UN News Russian attacks on  civilian targets in Ukraine could be a war crime: UN rights office

This is Russia’s, not just Putin’s war. Not Putin, but actual Russian soldiers come from Russia to kill, torture and destroy. Russians overwhelmingly support the war, cheer missile strikes on Ukrainian cities and murder of Ukrainians. Let Russian tourists enjoy Russia then.

In the course of its war on Ukraine, Russia has turned to nuclear terrorism. Russians shelled and occupied Europe's largest nuclear power plant in Zaporizhzhia. Now they use it as a military base, stuff it with military hardware, and threaten the world. @United24media explains 👇🏻 pic.twitter.com/LuupKy61KC

I highly appreciate another 🇺🇸 military aid package in the amount of $775 million. Thank you @POTUS for this decision! We have taken another important step to defeat the aggressor. 🇺🇦 will be free!
