Units of Ukraine's Defense Forces struck a site used to launch attack drones and a crossing in the Donetsk region, as well as a command post and a warehouse in Russia's Belgorod region, on October 2 and in the early hours of October 3, according to Ukrinform.
The report attributes the strikes to Ukrainian military units operating in the area, describing the targets as a drone launch site and a crossing used by Russian forces in Donetsk region, which is partly occupied by Russia, along with a command post and a warehouse located across the border in Russia's Belgorod region.
