The Ukrainian Air Force successfully struck a Russian drone unit command center in the Tiotkino area of Russia’s Kursk region. The attack resulted in the elimination of up to 20 Russian soldiers and the destruction of their equipment.

According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine’s Telegram channel, the strike took place on May 4. The command center housed crews operating reconnaissance and strike drones.

As a result of the attack, up to 20 Russian soldiers were killed, and their equipment was destroyed.

“The brave pilots of the Ukrainian Air Force and all Ukrainian Defense Forces continue to systematically reduce the aggressor state’s ability to conduct its invasion,” the General Staff emphasized.

Earlier in April, drones struck the “Kremniy-EL” microelectronics plant in Bryansk, Russia, according to multiple sources, including Russian regional authorities and Ukrainian officials.

Russian Telegram channels, including Shot and Astra, reported that between 10 and 15 explosions occurred near the “Kremniy-EL” facility.
