Goose by guessing Spetsnaz are you thinking Russian or Ukrainian special forces?  It would be pretty remarkable if Ukrainian special forces made it there, but they have been given boats recently.  If it were Russian that would be quite the 5th column, and among the most elite Russian forces. Would Crimean or other Ukrainians in occupied territories be eligible for that?  Anyways just wanted to clarify because either way it would be incredible.

Ukrainian. They could have used boats, but if they did they weren't the ones they recently got. It would be rubber boats that infiltrated in, probably many miles from the target. The area is also not easily guarded. Lots of open land. Overland infiltration is totally possible. Many Ukrainians know the area well. It could also be a group of "irregulars". I expect we will see more and more such operations in the "temporarily occupied territories", even if this particular attack turns out to be something else.
