Ukraine Uses Drones to Attack Russian Logistics

The 412th Nemesis Brigade of Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces has used 'secret' strike drones to attack Russian logistics on the 'Novorossiya' route, a key highway in occupied southern Ukraine. The brigade said the attacks have forced Russia to limit the movement of heavy equipment along the highway. The 'Novorossiya' route runs through the occupied Ukrainian cities of Mariupol, Melitopol, and Simferopol in Crimea.

Drone Strikes and Logistics

The 412th Nemesis Brigade claimed its new 'secret' attack drone has proven effective deep behind Russian lines, destroying 'dozens' of trucks and fuel tankers. Following Ukrainian strikes, Russia has limited the movement of heavy equipment along the highway. Ukrainian forces have also struck vehicles trying to circumvent the highway using dirt roads and field paths.

Ukraine's Middle-Strike Campaign

The strikes are part of Ukraine's middle-strike campaign, which targets Russian military equipment and supplies at the operational level, between 20 and 200 kilometers from the frontline. Air defense systems, command posts, fuel and ammunition depots, and logistics vehicles are all targets of this campaign.
