Soviet-era military air base in contested Crimea.
Location
Dzhankoy, Ukraine
Dzhankoy Air Base is a military airfield located near the city of Dzhankoy in the northern part of the Crimean Peninsula. It was established during the Soviet era and served as a base for Soviet military aviation operations.
Following Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014, the facility came under de facto Russian military control, though Ukraine and most of the international community continue to regard it as Ukrainian territory. The base has been reported as a site of Russian military activity during the ongoing conflict in the region.
The airfield is not open to commercial aviation and has no civilian passenger operations. It carries the ICAO code UKFY, which reflects its Ukrainian registration, though its operational status and control remain disputed.
