Tourists from Russia run for safety as missiles strike a crowded beach in the Crimean peninsula.
A day at the beach turned into a terrifying experience for tourists in Crimea when they suddenly found themselves running for their lives. In a dramatic new footage, we can see the chaos that unfolded as cluster munitions rained down on the seafront, sending sunbathers into a panic.

Amidst the peaceful atmosphere, the idyllic beach scene was shattered by a barrage of deadly shrapnel. Tourists were caught off guard and forced to seek shelter wherever they could find it, with many crowding into a nearby cafe for safety. Some were seen frantically gathering their belongings, while others raced to find cover from the exploding munitions.

As the beach emptied, the cafe filled with panicked people seeking refuge. The deafening sound of the exploding cluster munitions can be heard in the video, painting a chilling picture of the chaos and fear that ensued. The attack left four people dead and 153 injured, leaving the beach in shock and devastation.

The incident, which occurred on Sunday, has only recently surfaced in a video that captures the full horror of the event. According to reports, the Uchkuevka beach in Sevastopol, home to Putin's Black Sea Fleet, was deliberately targeted by Ukraine with a missile supplied by the US. However, there are conflicting theories as some believe that the missile was hit by Russian air defences and exploded over the sea next to the crowded beach.

In the footage, we can see tourists covering their ears and scrambling for cover, unsure of where to go to be safe. It is a terrifying sight to witness, and it is no wonder that the incident has left the beachgoers shaken and traumatized. The shrapnel that rained down is believed to be debris from the downed Ukrainian missile.

It is worth noting that Ukraine has a track record of being careful in their attacks, usually targeting only military or strategic sites to avoid harming civilians. However, this incident has caused outrage and heartache as innocent lives were lost on what was meant to be a peaceful day at the beach.

Separate footage shows a missile dropping into the sea, seemingly out of control, possibly after being hit by Russian air defences. The Russian Ministry of Defence has claimed that their air defences were successful in downing four out of five ATACMS missiles with cluster warheads.

Among the casualties was nine-year-old Sofiya, the daughter of Oleg Averyanov, the deputy mayor of Magadan, Russia. The devastated father has vowed to seek justice for his daughter and all the other victims, stating that he will not rest until he has avenged every child killed or injured on that beach.

In response to the tragedy, Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered top doctors to fly to Sevastopol to treat the victims, and some have been transported to Moscow hospitals for further treatment. The incident has caused shock and outrage, and the search for answers and justice continues.
