According to the General Staff, Ukrainian Defense Forces targeted a series of Russian military facilities on September 14 and overnight into September 15.
Near Donetsk, Ukrainian forces struck a site used by Russian troops to store, prepare, and launch attack drones. The General Staff did not specify the type of drones kept at the facility.
The strikes also targeted several military sites across Russia’s Bryansk region. Three electronic warfare stations were hit in Trubchevsk, Pochep-2, and Rechitsa, while radar stations used for airspace monitoring were targeted in Pogreby and Mostochene.
In Zlynka, Ukrainian forces also struck a relay station supporting a MESH communications network.
The operation extended to Russian-occupied Luhansk region, where Ukrainian forces targeted a Russian fuel and lubricant depot in Novosvitlivka.
The General Staff said the extent of the damage caused by the strikes is still being assessed.
The operation comes amid continued Ukrainian efforts to target Russian radar and air defense capabilities. In a separate strike reported on September 15, Ukrainian forces targeted a Russian Nebo-M long-range radar near the Millerovo airfield in Russia’s Rostov region.
The strike was carried out jointly by Ukraine’s 429th Achilles Unmanned Systems Brigade and the 43rd Separate Artillery Brigade, using a RAM-2X drone to hit the radar approximately 175 kilometers from the line of contact.
According to the Ukrainian military, the Nebo-M was deployed near the Millerovo airfield, a facility regularly used by Russian forces to launch Shahed-type attack drones against Ukraine.
