Ukrainian Forces Strike Russian Command Posts and Drone Depot in Donetsk Region
Ukraine's Defense Forces say they hit UAV command posts and a depot belonging to Russia's 'Rubicon' unit, among other targets.
Units of Ukraine's Defense Forces struck a series of Russian military targets in the Donetsk region, including unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) command posts and a drone depot, according to a Ukrainian military statement.
The statement said the strikes hit a drone depot belonging to Russia's "Rubicon" unit, along with other targets linked to Russian forces operating in the area.
The Donetsk region has been one of the most heavily contested areas of the war, with both sides regularly targeting logistics, command and drone infrastructure in an effort to degrade the other's operational capacity.
Ukraine has increasingly focused strikes on drone-related infrastructure as unmanned systems have come to play an outsized role in the conflict, with both Russian and Ukrainian forces relying heavily on UAVs for reconnaissance and strike missions.
Further details on the scale of damage caused by the strikes, or any casualties, were not immediately available, and the claims have not been independently verified.
