Video Shows Ukrainian Strikes on Russian Position on Snake Island

Video from the Ukrainian military is described as showing a Ukrainian strike on a Russian position on Snake Island in the Black Sea.

Ukraine’s Operational Command South published the undated video on its Facebook page on May 6. The video shows a strike on Russian military hardware next to the island’s lighthouse.

Zmiinyi Island, or Snake Island, is where Ukrainian soldiers reportedly told a Russian warship crew to go “f***” themselves early in the war, a story that was commemorated by a postage stamp released in April. Credit: Operational Command South via Storyful
