Russia Parked Dozens of Vehicles 12 Miles Behind the Front. Azov Drones Burned Them Anyway

Ukrainian drone operators from the National Guard’s 12th Azov Special Forces Brigade stopped a Russian attempt to push toward Ukrainian positions before it could get underway, striking a large vehicle convoy deep behind the front line.

The brigade, part of the National Guard’s 1st Azov Corps, released footage of the operation on August 10.

Russian forces apparently believed that nearly 20 kilometers, or about 12 miles, behind the line of contact was far enough to assemble dozens of vehicles in a single column safely.

Azov’s drone operators proved otherwise. The convoy was detected at range, and footage released by the brigade showed Russian vehicles burning after the strikes.

“Our Unmanned Systems Battalion proves once again—the kill zone will extend even deeper into the rear. Run, occupier, from Ukrainian land while you still have something to run on,” the brigade said.

Previously, Ukrainian forces struck a Russian military convoy near Novohrodivka, damaging infantry fighting vehicles, cars, and transport trucks.
