Ukrainian drone forces foil Russian offensive in Donetsk region

The Unmanned Systems Forces reported the information.

According to military sources, the Russian forces are attempting to preserve their armored vehicles by limiting their use directly on the line of contact. Additionally, the Russians are reinforcing the vehicles with additional metal structures and employing camouflage.

However, despite these measures, thanks to the coordinated work of servicemembers from the 414th Separate Unmanned Systems Brigade Madyar's Birds, they managed to strike Russian tanks and armored vehicles.

The Unmanned Systems Forces noted that the destruction of Russian armored vehicles "disrupted the Russian forces' intentions to carry out assault operations toward the Defense Forces' positions."

• Earlier this week, Artem Pribylnov, head of the communications department of the 155th Separate Mechanized Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, reported that since the beginning of the year, the Russian army has been intensifying pressure on the Pokrovsk direction.
