UAV relay stations were also targeted in the attack.

The Ukrainian Defense Forces struck the control tower at the “Saki” airfield in Novofedorivka and a relay station used to control attack UAVs in the Chernomorsk area. This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

“On August 12, the Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out a series of strikes against enemy military targets in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukrainian Crimea,” the statement reads. “The destruction of these facilities weakens the enemy’s ability to maintain the operation of the military airfield and control attack drones.”
The General Staff noted that operations against key enemy targets are continuing. The Ukrainian Defense Forces are systematically reducing the enemy’s ability to conduct combat operations and maintain the functioning of its military formations.
