Ukrainian drones strike Russian logistical hubs in Luhansk Oblast
Luhansk
Drones operated by Ukraine's Third Army Corps struck Russian logistical hubs in occupied Luhansk Oblast, the unit said, releasing video footage of the operation on June 11.
"KRAKEN pilots continue their raids on the occupiers' logistics routes across Luhansk Oblast, targeting Starobilsk, Aidar, Novoaidar, Shchastia, Rubizhne and Sievierodonetsk," the statement said.
According to the military, UAV operators struck logistics hubs, trucks carrying personnel, and fuel and lubricant supplies used by Russian forces.
"Distance no longer guarantees safety for the occupiers. We are coming back to destroy the enemy," the Third Army Corps said.
On June 3, the Third Army Corps said that, as part of an operation targeting Russian rear logistics, fighters from the 3rd Separate Reconnaissance Battalion's unmanned systems unit struck trucks, Gazelle vans and armored vehicles in Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts. Footage released by the unit also showed the Donbas Arena stadium.
On May 31, the Third Army Corps said its unmanned systems battalion had carried out strikes against Russian logistics in Luhansk Oblast, reaching as far as the Izvaryne checkpoint, more than 205 kilometers deep into occupied territory.
In April, the 1st Azov Corps of the National Guard of Ukraine reported that its strike drone pilots had established control over Russian logistics routes near occupied Donetsk. Ukrainian UAVs were said to be operating actively in Zuhres, Andriivka, Starobesheve, Horlivka, Lysychansk and along the Donetsk Ring Road.
