The General Staff announced that Ukrainian forces also hit a series of Russian military targets in the Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia regions on September 30 and overnight into October 1.
Striking such sites is "one of the priorities of the Defense Forces of Ukraine," the General Staff stated. It added that the aim is to reduce Russia's ability to use attack drones against civilian infrastructure.
The General Staff listed the following targets:
a site used for storing, preparing and launching attack drones in the area of Donetsk;
a Russian drone command post in the area of Pokrovsk in the Donetsk region;
a rocket and artillery weapons depot in the area of Verkhniokamianka in the Luhansk region;
a concentration area of Russian weapons and military equipment in the area of Tymoshivka in the Zaporizhzhia region.
The statement did not provide damage assessments for these four sites. The General Staff noted that work against key Russian military targets is continuing.
