⚔️ Battle for Zmiinyi Island: The beginning of liberating the Ukrainian sea

🔥 Three years ago — on May 7, 2022 — special forces of Ukraine’s Defense Intelligence and fighters from the SBU "Alpha" Special Center, supported by the Ukrainian Navy, conducted an operation to land troops on Zmiinyi Island.

✔️ Capturing Zmiinyi allowed Russian occupiers to control the northwestern Black Sea, threatened amphibious landings on Ukraine’s coast, and restricted the operation of Ukrainian ports.

⚡️ To drive the occupiers out, Ukrainian military intelligence, together with the SBU, prepared a surprise landing operation using boats and army helicopters.

"The enemy knew we wanted to do this, but the landing and attack still shocked them. They did not expect it, and we hit them hard," said Shaman, commander of the Defense Intelligence special unit involved in the operation.

☝️ The battle for the island lasted most of the day. The enemy brought in aircraft and reserves. Ultimately, Ukrainian forces withdrew to their positions, but the assault proved the island could be liberated.

"We gained a lot of experience, especially in mastering the captured equipment left behind by the Russians," noted Defense Intelligence Chief Kyrylo Budanov.

❗️ Thanks to the liberation of Zmiinyi, Ukraine regained control over vital export sea routes.

"Until the end, a Russian special forces unit remained, trying to block shipping in the region. That is no longer the case," emphasized Budanov.

▫️ The island’s liberation became key for the "grain corridor," which is essential for Ukraine's economy and global food security.

🫡 The landing operation was part of a broader campaign for control over the Black Sea, demonstrating Ukraine's determination even in difficult conditions and paving the way for further successes against Russia’s Black Sea Fleet.

The confiscation of the Russian plane "Ruslan" was one of my first goals in the first month of the work of the Ministry of Justice. And so, the result of our team's work: Canada began the process of confiscation of the An-124 "Ruslan" transport aircraft, which belongs to the Russian Volga-Dnieper airline, and was already under Canadian custody.

To understand the scale - an-124 "Ruslan" in length is three quarters of the football field (about 69 meters), with wingspan even more. Its height is about a 7-storey building (21 meters). The confiscation proceedings are under Canadian Special Economic Measures Act and is currently up to the confiscation decision by the Ontario High Court.

This is another important step on the way to justice and restoration of peace in Ukraine. The filing of the case about the confiscation of the plane to court is a joint result of the meticulous work of the employees of the Ministry of Justice, the Foreign Ministry in close cooperation with our partners. And this is a great example of how international law works in practice.

In August 2023 VAKS, having established the grounds for the application of the sanction, complied with the Ministry's lawsuit on the application of a sanction in the form of a collection of assets undersanctioned Volga-Dnepr. The Ministry of Justice was transferred to the decision of VAKS to Canadian partners. And now the Attorney General of Canada has appealed to the Ontario High Court with concerns about the confiscation of the Russian plane.

Convinced, all actions lead to one: "Ruslan" will soon have a new home - in Ukraine, where it will serve for the good of our state.

Grateful to Canada for its unwavering support and decisive actions. Justice is not just words, but concrete steps we see today. And this is just the beginning.

Russia’s dictator, steeped in myth, couldn’t care less that ‘too many people are dying’ in Ukraine.
