Ukrainian military personnel destroyed two enemy observation towers located in Russia’s Kursk and Bryansk regions, the Kraken special unit of the Main Directorate of Intelligence, or HUR, reported on Telegram on March 12.

The remotely-controlled Murom tower in Bryansk Oblast was able to observe 15 kilometers into Ukrainian territory, spotting troop movements and adjusting artillery fire, assisting Russian reconnaissance and sabotage groups, and performing other military functions.

The Russians built another such tower in Kursk Oblast. Both towers were successfully destroyed by the Ukrainian military, the HUR said.
