The coastal component forces were divided into four tactical groups and a fire engagement group. The operation began with the landing of tactical airborne and amphibious assault forces, followed by an advance into the depths of the crisis region.

The first tactical group disembarked from the Yuri Olefirenko medium landing ship near the port of one of the settlements in the Odessa region. It is worth noting that the landing was carried out by special units of the Security Service of Ukraine. Together with them, the Ukrainian Marines unblocked the port, city council, critical infrastructure and held them until the arrival of the National Guard units. Later they moved to a certain section of the state border.

An equally important task was assigned to the second tactical group, which included Ukrainian marines, servicemen of the State Border Service of Ukraine, servicemen of the Armed Forces of Georgia and the Republic of Moldova. This group, having carried out a parachute landing from helicopters, attacked the captured airfield, which the terrorists planned to use as the main point for receiving food, personnel and equipment. After taking the object under control, the group commander decided to organize a circular defense of the airfield and hold it until the main forces arrived.

During training, some allied units were blocked by militants or were ambushed. The third tactical group went to their aid. Having made a march from the waiting area to the original area, the Ukrainian marines overcame the water barrier and proceeded to raid operations. During the raid, having destroyed the sabotage and reconnaissance groups of the enemy and released allied units, they moved forward to reinforce the second tactical group. Having united, the two groups went to the state border, where the servicemen of the State Border Service organized border control and provided access to the area for non-state humanitarian organizations.

According to the leadership of the coastal component, the training was planned taking into account the experience of hostilities in certain areas of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. During these maneuvers, electronic warfare equipment was actively used, which made it difficult to perform the assigned tasks.
