Operators of Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces carried out a series of strikes against Russian military targets in temporarily occupied territories.

According to the Unmanned Systems Forces on February 13, operators from the “Kairos” unit of the 414th Separate Brigade “Birds of Magyar” struck an ammunition depot near the settlement of Rozivka in the Zaporizhzhia region two days earlier.

On February 12, operators from the 1st Separate Center of the Unmanned Systems Forces used middle strike capabilities to hit several additional targets, including the “Kirova” electrical substation in occupied Luhansk, the “Hvardiiske” military airfield in Russia-annexed Crimea, and a data center in Primorsk.

The full extent of the damage is still being assessed.

“Each of the targeted facilities supports the enemy grouping’s energy, aviation, or communications resilience in the temporarily occupied territories. Systematic strikes against such infrastructure disrupt command and logistics, reducing the Russian army’s ability to sustain combat operations,” the statement read.

In a separate operation in the temporarily occupied part of the Zaporizhzhia region, Ukrainian units located and eliminated a Russian BM-27 Uragan-1 multiple-launch rocket system, Lasar’s Group of the National Guard of Ukraine reported on February 10.

The strike was conducted within the operational area of the 17th Army Corps in coordination with the 422nd Separate Unmanned Systems Battalion and the 104th Unmanned Systems Center. According to the unit, the launcher had been used to shell civilian infrastructure in the Zaporizhzhia area.

Officials said drone operators had monitored the system for several months, analyzing its movement patterns and firing positions before carrying out the final strike. Once the launcher was identified, forces launched a coordinated attack using heavy bomber drones and FPV drones, supported by aerial reconnaissance. Initial hits disabled the system, after which follow-up strikes detonated the ammunition, resulting in its complete destruction.

Earlier, Ukrainian forces carried out strikes on several Russian military facilities, targeting high-profile drone units, supply infrastructure, and a command center located on Russian territory.
