Ukrainian Ground Robots Deliver 7 Tons of Supplies, Rescue 21 Wounded on Donetsk Front

Volunteers from Ukraine’s “Svoboda” battalions operating within the 4th Rapid Response Brigade “Rubizh” of the National Guard of Ukraine carried out 34 missions with ground robotic complexes in November on the Dobropillia–Pokrovsk axis in the Donetsk region.

According to the unit, these unmanned ground systems were used to deliver 7,120 kilograms of supplies to forward positions, including ammunition, equipment, and other critical cargo needed to sustain frontline units under fire.

The same robotic platforms were employed for medical evacuation and recovery tasks, transporting 21 wounded soldiers from the battlefield to safer locations where they could receive medical care.

The operators also used the systems to bring back the bodies of two fallen servicemembers to Ukrainian-controlled territory and to evacuate three unmanned ground vehicles that had been damaged in combat so they could be repaired or replaced.

The brigade stressed that it is continuing to develop and expand the use of ground robotic complexes in order to reduce risks for soldiers performing the most dangerous missions near the front line.

Earlier, it was reported that a Ukrainian ground robot rescued a soldier who had spent 33 days trapped behind enemy lines.
