The raid on Tendra Spit was a failed small boat operation conducted by Ukrainian special forces against the Russian-held Tendra Spit. The spit is a narrow island off the coast of Kherson Oblast, on the Black Sea. It is northwest of the Crimean Peninsula. The raid occurred over the night of 28 February and morning of 29 February 2024. [1] [2]

Five assault boats from the 73rd Naval Center of Maritime Special Operations were reported to have approached the beach and attempted to land. As they approached, the boats came under fire from Russian forces. One boat was reported to have escaped. [2] [3]

Russia claimed to have captured one Ukrainian and killed 20-25 others. [2] [3] The Ukrainian Defense Ministry acknowledged the deaths of four Ukrainians in the action. [3] Russian sources posted photos to social media showing the bodies of six Ukrainians claimed to have been killed in the action. [4]
