Can you blame them? I think there's some sort of dispute going on as to where that border is, making it hard to do precision geofencing.

Crimea is Russian-occupied Ukrainian land. There’s not much of a dispute, in that it is exclusively Russia who claims it as part of Russia; Belarus doesn’t count, as it may as well just be a puppet state at this point.

The rest of the world sees it as Russian-occupied Ukrainian land.

To be fair the 'border' hasn't moved all that much in over 2 years now, save a few fields and ruined hamlets.

Plus they use starlink of drone boats, so some degree of flexibility is needed.
