Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces struck the Hvardiiske oil depot in Russian-occupied Crimea on Feb. 21

“Operators of the 1st Separate Unmanned Systems Center, in coordination with the SBS grouping’s Deep Strike Center, struck an oil depot in the settlement of Hvardiiske (Simferopol district, Crimea) — a facility that supplies fuel to Russian forces on the peninsula,” the statement said.

Damage to the oil depot is disrupting fuel supplies, reducing the mobility of Russian units and complicating the use of Crimea as a rear base.

Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces continue to systematically degrade the Russian army’s military infrastructure.

Earlier, SBS commander Robert Brovdi, also known by the call sign “Madyar,” reported the destruction of a Russian Tornado-S multiple-launch rocket system at a firing position.

In addition, on Feb. 20 Ukraine’s Defense Forces struck the Votkinsk Plant in Russia’s Udmurt Republic with FP-5 Flamingo cruise missiles. The plant produces Iskander-M, Topol-M, Kinzhal and Yars missiles.

The Neftegorsk gas processing plant in Russia’s Samara region, which supplies resources to the Russian occupation army, was also hit. A fire broke out at the facility
