This was officially confirmed by the so-called head of the occupation administration of Alushta Galina Ognev in her Telegram channel. According to her, the occupier died as a result of a rocket attack on Crimea, which happened some time ago. Earlier, various Russian media also wrote that Alexander Kulakov was on the list of dead after a blow to the Crimea, but the information was confirmed only a few days.
The Russian Media Astra wrote that in the morning of May 13, a military base of air defense, located on Mount Ai-Petri in the captured Crimea, was damaged. Sources of journalists in emergency services then stated that several missiles, probably Storm Shadow, attacked the military unit No. 85683. At this height, the Astra is continued, the "secret" military base of the 3rd Radiotechnical Regiment of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is located.
"As a result of the rockets, the territory was damaged, the commander of 85683 was killed by Alexander Kulakov and another serviceman. There are also wounded, their number is clarified," the journalists wrote. In the article "Crimea. Realia", they talked more about Russian military facilities, which are located on the captured Crimean peninsula. There is also one at the top of the Ai-Petri Mountain.
It is about the radio technical center of long -range intelligence and the guidance of air defense troops, which was created in Soviet times. These "monuments" often attracted the attention of tourists, because the domes of the protective structures of the radars were made in the form of balls. The Russian Ministry of Defense after 2014, when the occupation of Crimea took place, uses them in their own interests. There could be a blow, which resulted in Alexander Kulakov.
