Drone attacks on Russia
Ukrainian defenders have carried out dozens of operations against the enemy using drones. The Defense Forces are targeting military sites on Russian territory and in the occupied regions of Ukraine.
In particular, the Defense Forces are "hunting" for oil refineries and fuel depots that supply fuel to the Russian army. For example, one of the largest oil terminals in Crimea, located in Feodosia, was attacked.
The oil depot had been supplying fuel to the occupying forces. After the attack, a fire raged at the terminal for nearly a week.
