Released drone footage on June 3 shows a strike on the Russian corvette Boykiy while the vessel was in dry dock at the Kronstadt naval base near St. Petersburg. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the overnight operation also targeted a fuel terminal and other military facilities in the region. Satellite imagery taken later that day showed damage at an oil terminal and shipyard, though the extent of the damage could not be independently verified.
