Ukrainian Special Forces Seize Vyshky Boika Oil Rigs,
At approximately 0525 EST, Ukrainian government sources announced that a combined drone and missile attack, followed by a small boat operation seized at least one oil and gas rig belonging to Chornomornaftoga, which were seized by the Russian Federation in 2015. Ukraine had struck these rigs before in 2022, prompting the deployment of tactical air defenses on the rigs themselves. However, this operation seems to be the most significant action against the rigs since their seizure. They are referred to as the "Boika Towers"
