Defence forces strike four UAV command posts of occupiers in Ukraine and Russia

Striking key drone control nodes

According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, over the past 24 hours, units of Ukraine's Defence Forces struck four enemy unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) command posts. The targets were located on the temporarily occupied territories of Zaporizhzhia, Kherson and Donetsk regions, as well as directly on the territory of the Russian Federation.

Most valuable target hit in Berdiansk

Particular value is attached to the successful strike on a facility in the city of Berdiansk. There, a temporary deployment point and UAV control centre for a unit belonging to the "Rubicon" was hit. This Russian drone centre is considered one of the most combat-capable and is actively used to terrorise the civilian population in frontline settlements.

Although exact enemy losses are still being clarified, the combat effect of the strike is already evident: disabling each such command post means a reduction in the number of Russian drones appearing over Ukrainian military positions and transport arteries.

Strikes in Kherson and Donetsk regions and Bryansk region

In addition to Berdiansk, Ukrainian warriors deprived the occupiers of the ability to control drones in other regions. Russian army UAV command posts were struck:

• near Oleshky in Kherson region;
• in the area of Bilitske in Donetsk region;
• in the area of Aleksandrovskoye in Bryansk region (on Russian territory).

The department emphasises that operations against key military targets of the enemy will continue until the complete cessation of Russia's armed aggression against Ukraine.
