Quote: “Strike UAV pilots are hunting Russian logistics in the deep operational zone. Drones are keeping all logistics routes around Donetsk under control.”

Details: The military said active UAV operations along the routes of Zuhres, Andriivka, Starobesheve, Horlivka, Lysychansk and the Donetsk ring road indicate the ineffectiveness of Russia’s airspace control system.

“Not long ago, the occupiers felt completely safe there. But now all military targets moving along roads around Donetsk will be destroyed,” the Corps said.

Background: On 15 April, Oleksandr Syrskyi, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, said that Russian forces have intensified offensive operations along almost the entire 1,200 km front line following changes in weather conditions, while Ukrainian defenders are engaged in active defense.
