Such a group is supposed to strengthen the protection of the bridge from attacks by Ukrainian naval drones.

The invaders are keeping at least two anti-sabotage boats of project 21980 “Grachonok” and one artillery boat of project 1204 “Shmel” near the Kerch Bridge, пише writes “Krymsky Viter”.

The “Grachonok” boats are designed to combat sabotage and reconnaissance groups and underwater saboteurs. They are armed with a 14.5-mm MTPU machine gun, DP-65A and DP-64 grenade launchers, as well as portable anti-aircraft missile systems “Igla” and “Verba”.

The artillery boat “Bumblebee” is armed with a 76-mm D-56TS gun, 25-mm 2M-3M artillery mounts, a 7.62-mm SGMT machine gun, NUR BM-14-17 launchers, Strela-2M MANPADS, as well as the ability to install bottom and anchor mines.
