Ukrainian military personnel carried out a strike on a Russian Black Sea Fleet facility in the temporarily occupied city of Sevastopol overnight on June 10-11. The Ukrainian Navy confirmed that the attack was conducted using a domestically produced Neptune coastal missile system.

The Neptune system is a Ukrainian-made coastal defense missile platform. The targeted facility belongs to Russia's Black Sea Fleet, which has been based in Sevastopol since the annexation of Crimea in 2014. The facility is a key component of the fleet's infrastructure.

No immediate information was provided regarding the extent of damage or any casualties. The Ukrainian Navy provided the only official confirmation of the operation. The strike is part of ongoing Ukrainian efforts to degrade Russian military capabilities in the region. Details about the operation remain limited.
