Snake Island, Ukraine [Map]

Snake Island, also known as Zmiinyi Island, is an island belonging to Ukraine located in the Black Sea, near the Danube Delta, with an important role in delimiting Ukrainian territorial waters. The island, under Romanian control during the Second World War, was the location of a radio station used by the Axis forces, which turned it into a target for the Soviet Black Sea Fleet. The island's defences mainly consisted of several anti-aircraft guns, captured from the Russians. The Romanian marine platoon defending the island was equipped with these anti-aircraft guns, machine guns, and small arms. The Romanian marines were evacuated from the island and Soviet troops occupied it on 29–30 August 1944. The island is populated, reported to have under 30 people in 2012. A village, Bile, was founded in February 2007 with the purpose of consolidating the status of the island as an inhabited place. On 24 February 2022, two Russian navy warships attacked and captured Snake Island. It was subsequently bombarded heavily by Ukraine. On 30 June 2022, Ukraine announced that it had driven Russian forces off the island. I made this map using a topographic map and the gps height-map I made from it. It is relatively 1:1 scale to the real island, but not exact. It features the base on Snake Island with it's radio station and lighthouse, as well as surrounding buildings and the small village of Bile. All buildings, nature, and roads are placed accurately based on real-life map information.
